      Try: Jerboa, Liftoff, Connect, Summit, Thunder, wefwef, etc.

      Sync is coming next month too.

        And you can install any of them right now without waiting for them to be approved on the store.

        I’m currently waiting for some of these to make it to Fdroid, it’s just jerboa on there so far (which I like!)

          I’m excited for boost because that was my favourite Reddit client.

          Liftoff is pretty good so far. You can use obtanium to install it from GitHub releases and keep it up to date, I find it just as convenient as F-droid.

            Thanks for both recommendations, I’ve read about obtainium before but never needed to use it. It’s good!

            So far I like liftoff as well. Nice to have several good options (already!)

          Liftoff is there too. I like Jerboa but I felt there were too many bugs/crashes just now. Liftoff isn’t the best looking but its the most dependable imo.

          Lemmotif is also looking good but is newer and less feature rich last I checked. There’s probably a couple newer ones that’s I’m forgetting.

          Oh, Artemis is coming soon and also supports kbin which is rare as their api isn’t finished yet.

      We’ve got a bajillion of them, and unlike iOS, you didn’t need to wait for it to hit the Apple Store.

        iOS allows you to install beta apps via TestFlight. And we have a bunch already not including wefwef.

          Which technically doesn’t even get installed because it’s one of these new fancy no-download apps!

          Won’t go back to android for their vulnerabilities and Google’s spyware and I won’t be goin back to Reddit

            staying in a closed sourced platform is more vulnerable. though I’m running a custom android rom

                how? justify your reasoning? being on apple who have one of the largest user base, you are more vulnerable for cyberattacks. you said you left google because of Google spying on you. how come apple won’t do that?

                  Oy vey, no man…

                  Android is the most heavily used OS in the world. The best thing I’m gonna recommend instead of listing all the reasons is to point you to lists of Android vulnerabilities (public info because OSINT is life) vs iOS vulns over time.

                  Apple may spy on us! But nothing near as severe as google has in the past (and we’re caught for) like when google chrome was listening in on user microphones. Never heard of such a scandal with Apple before.

                  And for the record I think Apple is over priced and a cult 🤠

                    well, i use firefox that too a fork which is mull browser developed by divestos, which is more hardened. on custom rom (fully open source android os) i have option to which app to install. so no default chrome browser for me. i don’t even use default youtube app. where in apple all your browsers use same safari engine (Where’s is your choice when all those different browsers are same) apple in the past had many privacy issues, like giving backdoor to FBI, when they tried to snoop into your phone gallery, but backed down when public enraged over it. when half your data stays in a centralised cloud platform. that’s why people like Snowden uses an android that too running custom android os.

                    here’s a video about how iphone isn’t a privacy centric phone

      I’m sure android has alternatives already. I always feel like iOS gets the popular apps later than android. :(
