Voyager is still my daily driver. The swiping is great.

I tried to switch, because it is really nice. But coming from sync, how having to swipe back to the main feed from a post made me look elsewhere. You have to start your swipe at the far left of the screen, vs just swiping anywhere.
I've gone from sync to voyager too and yeah, that does bother me. Sync really does have the best UX, UI and performance but it's a shame it's basically been abandoned.
It's great even if you hate swiping!
I just swiped to up vote you
The Thunder app is still my number one candidate.
Looks nice! I Def prefer the Jerboa style, reminds me of Relay for Reddit.
But the last thing I want is some "smart" algorithm I'm not gonna lie, the linear post sort is the best part about Lemmy. I don't want to ever see "Recommended for you" and "see also" or any of that corpo crap again and it's nice to not have to filter it all out by tinkering with settings cough disabling watch history on YouTube cough anymore.
Scaled is as smart as algos for content should get.
To each their own!
Sure, but with normies blaming the downfall of civilization on content sort algorithms I do wonder how much if any value they add, and whether the ability to gather such information will inevitably lead to other cancer like ads and monetization.
Yeah fuck algorithms, all my friends hate algorithms.
Not being sarcastic, I genuinely feel that way.
Btw you may be interested in !lain@sh.itjust.works despite the fact that it's dead. Or maybe your username is completely unrelated. Worth a shot.
Let's all love Lain!
controversial ones bad, customizable ones are good
What do you mean exactly by customizable?
is there something like this for Mastodon? I think microblogging really needs a content discovery algorithm for the mainstream audience
Yeah I really can't get into mastodon, I completely agree.
I guess I was never into twitter
Looks nice, but I'm more a fan of Photon. https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon
I liked Connect, but have since switched to Interstellar because it supports Mbin.
So far, I am loving it!
I made Quiblr. Glad you're enjoying it! Let me know if anyone has questions
Thanks! The only odd thing I ran into is im not sure how to subscribe or un-subscribe from communities.
Managing communities is currently all on the communities page (or on the right bar in desktop). This should be easier though in the upcoming Quiblr version
Am I the only one who just goes to the site in my browser? Why's everyone need an app for everything anyways? It's getting out of control. There's too many apps! I need a way to keep them all organized. Someone should make an app for that!
It's personal preference
Not at all, I use Firefox and normal Lemmy-UI 95% of the time. It just works for me.
But sometimes I use the Sync app, because I paid to remove ads and I'm gonna get my money's worth, so help me God.

"I didnt' pay that thing for nothing!"
Sunk cost fallacy goes brrr
Same. My "app" is just the webapp pinned as a PWA. Can't even tell it's not an app.
Come to think of it, most of my "apps" are that; very few locally installed, and that's how I like it.
Browser is so slow in my phone that searching the web is a tedious Chore, using any site is clunky and most of the time impossible. Apps often work fine
