I'm suffering through Jerboa, heavily anticipating Sync since it'll change everything for me
browser.
Im using Alexandrite on desktop und Liftoff on mobile. Liftoff is great, I don't really miss much from the famous reddit apps.
Liftoff on mobile. Don't get to sit at a PC for web browsing much. If sync feels like it did on reddit. I will switch to that and customize it exactly how I want it again.
Same here. Liftoff does what I need it to do for the time-being, but will be switching to sync whenever it is ready to go
App, funny enough never been here on the pc.
Voyager
web browser on desktop, but if synclemmy is going to be as hot as reddit syncreddit, then mobile usage will jump.
Thunder
Currently using CONNECT on the phone and browser on PC. More or less exactly the way I used to browse reddit really
Waiting for Boost
Browser on on PC. On mobile, Connect or Lift-off; can't really tell the differences yet.
I'm not a smartphone guy. I use a browser version on my laptop.
Liftoff on Android and Memmy on IOS. I prefer Liftoff.
Liftoff
Mostly liftoff (now), sometimes browser.
Browser. So far I haven't found an app that is user friendly, allows me to switch accounts, and doesn't log me out every 30 minutes.

Firefox when I'm at my PC, and when I'm relaxing I switch between Connect on Android or Memmy on my iPad.
Desktop browser on PC or tablet with multiple Lemmy instances pinned. I get different flavors of lemmy based on subscription. Also wefwef.app and old.lemmy. iOS Mlem and Memmy apps on phone.
I was using Jerboa because i was used to Sync for reddit. But, I got a bit tired of how rough around the edges it is, so I switched to just installing my Lemmy instance front page as Firefox "app" on my phone and realized it's not that bad as a UI, so sticking with it for now.
I'll probably try apps again in the future but I feel more open to "installing" good web apps now. Incidentally I tried the same trick with Reddit's mobile interface after Sync stopped working and realized it's also not so awful as I remembered. I did prefer Sync but I'll see how it goes with this method. So it's mobile web interfaces on Android for me for now.
Having said that, in both cases I think I'd prefer a more "simple HTML" type experience like old reddit over these dynamic SPA things they both have going.

I just recently started using the app Thunder, but also old.lemmy.world as well. Feel almost at home until Sync is released.
wefwef and safari
Browser. Waiting for Sync!
Thunder
Iβm using wefwef on iPhone, nothing on my Android tablet yet. Waiting for Sync.

Right now in firefox on a laptop. But I mainly use the Connect app. And will definately check out Sync when it releases.
I'm using an app at the moment
Cycling between Voyager, Jerboa and Thunder. Still have to try Sync
Jerboa on mobile until Sync is ready. Nothing at all on desktop!
Firefox Focus on mobile
Firefox on desktop
App. I like it so far.
Which app?
Memmy is nailing it for me. Brand new app and itβs already super smooth, intuitive and functional. Experience is close enough to Apollo that Iβm now fully onboard the Lemmy train.
