I’ll put my thoughts on this post as it showed up as I scrolled to get to the one from a day or two ago…I have 5 different Lemmy apps installed right now. Figure that there is going to be a lot of experimentation and work being done right now, so it’s nice to see what everyone is doing.
Jerboa - Personally, I really like Jerboa. Being the most mature of the bunch shows. It’s well laid out, has just enough UI options, and works. Except that now Beehaw isn’t on v0.18.
Connect - Not open source at this time, I get why that matters to people, but not a deal breaker for me. Typing this comment in Connect. Just updated this morning with additional and redesigned settings. There is about a thumbs width of space between this comment box and my keyboard. That’s kind of yucky.
Liftoff - I’m hopeful for this one. It LOOKS the best to me, but there’s some weird UX issues. Biggest being that the only place to see your replies/notifications is the top of the Home feed with no quick way to get there if you’ve been scrolling.
Thunder - I can see the potential, but it’s not for me right now. No buttons on comments, you have to use swipe gestures. But posts have buttons. Changing UI options doesn’t actually change anything 95% of the time.
Summit - You want a zero frills, dark mode way of browsing and interacting? This is that. I’d love a FEW options (like light mode), but it’s fast and easy. Uhh…just realized I can’t find a way to make a new post…
Wefwef.app - Last one. Really slick looking and responsive, but too iOS-y for me. It also claims to have light mode, but I can’t figure out how to switch it. Really polished though.
I really dislike the theming and buttons at the top of the page on Lemmy mobile. The tildes theme is better, but some of those targets are pretty tiny for my not real large hands. Jerboa uses my system colors and allows for a little customization.
Every now and then I do find myself needing to leave the app to do or find something on the actual site, but it’s mostly been good for me so far.
I like going the lemming related route…
Or in a different direction: Lemmyn. With a yellow citrus 🍋 logo.
Also, Infinity was my most recent Reddit app of choice. I miss it. Really looking forward to testing yours out.
AC Odyssey is so beautiful. I still have to finish the Atlantis DLC at some point. I ran into an annoying bug that was blocking me.
I’ve been thinking about reinstalling Fallout 4 this weekend to play through Far Harbor and work on settlements.
But I’ll more than likely just play Chrono Trigger and Cave Noire for a while and that will be it.
MDJ is not fun at all. The pacing is horrible, the NPCs are annoying and bland, and the puzzles are either super simple or literally impossible given the tools at your disposal.
My library is mostly Sierra and LucasArts adventures. Also a ton of D&D titles I haven’t touched.
Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds is an all-time favorite.
For the Sierra titles, I’d highly recommend the first Gabriel Knight.
