I enjoy the connect for lemmy app and I was wondering if anyone can recommend something similar for piefed. If such a thing exists.

There's a list somewhere that I can't find but:

  • Tesseract
  • Voyager
  • Blorp

Thank you kindly. I'll start there

I’m biased, but Blorp has the best tech support imo.

Here is a recent post about options - https://piefed.social/post/1258559

I've never used Connect, so I can't provide a direct comparison. I most often use piefed as a PWA.

Much appreciated. Thank you.

I don't see this mentioned very often but Mlem is such a good app for lemmy and piefed both. I think it's iOS only though.

Looks neat. But alas I am an android user.

Honestly just the webpages themselves offers the absolute best experience, especially with the API still being made and refined. But Voyager is also an extremely popular choice. There is also a Thunder beta version but it has not made its way into the official one (at least as of yesterday in the Play Store, I don't know about the App Store on iOS).

I just use Ironfox (Firefox) myself. That way Topics is available.

The only downside for me is not being able to quickly post a comment with an image. Have to go offsite for that to get a link. When I tried Voyager I didn't have to do that tedious process.

Please share your experiences

So far I am pretty comfy in interstellar. I am mostly at my desktop, but the app is good for when I am waiting in line or something.

if anyone else is coming from connect/lemmy I think this is a decent jump.

Any app that supports topics?
