I paid $3.49 to support the developers and the ads go away as a bonus.

I just use my mobile browser (firefox for android) to view it.

I use the webpage as a webapp. It's adless.

Idk, I've tried a few but still like Boost; just can't get into Jerboa or Liftoff, which I tried. It's mostly just their ad network being meh


though I mostly just get crappy fake gameplay ads, and not enough to bother me. I'm not even sure if they're targeting me, cause if they are, they're pretty bad at it.

Unfortunately I'm sure the app developer doesn't get much say, virtually all mobile app networks are cancer.

I'm reading this on Boost (once off payment) and no ads...

I take it schools aren't teaching tech literacy. We wouldn't want the kids to get in the way of our overlord marketing agencies.

Lemmy website does provide official PWA app.

On iOS: Safari > Lemmy website > Hit share button > Add to home screen. On android, I assume steps will be similar.

I wholeheartedly recommend PWA app as such is published by the publisher of website itself, and I don’t need to download it either from official or 3rd party store.

In case you don’t know, PWA is basically a web app, running using your browser engine, which has almost same look-n-feel of native app.
