Does this exist for Lemmy yet?

      There’s a thread in !liftoff@lemmy.world where people are recommending their fave replacement but tbh pretty much every app gets at least one mention, which one is best probably depends on your priorities!

      None of them really meet all my needs (neither did Liftoff, I had to combine it with Summit), so I’m trying to help out by testing !raccoonforlemmy@lemmy.world in the hopes that it could become my holy grail.

          • Good support for multiple accounts
          • Easy on the eyes, which means among other stuff none of that forced solid black background stuff as it gives me a headache
          • Customisable text for similar reasons to the above
          • Easy to post & reply & generally interact with people (some apps make it real difficult to continue a convo from your inbox, for example)
          • Basic mod capabilities
          • Multi-communities are a big bonus (this is why I keep Summit installed)

          Generally I prefer more features over slick looks which I think is where a lot of people go the other way. Probably depends if you post a lot or are more of a scroller. I currently have 11 apps installed so will just keep testing them all out until one wins, lol.

          It’s definitely a bit rough around the edges but personally I like it more than most of the others I’ve tried

            It’s developed by the main Lemmy dev as far as I understand. Closest thing to an ‘official’ app we’ve got. But other apps just suit me better ATM. I’m still testing different apps now and then since the apps are still rapidly being developed and dying out. Settled on Liftoff initially, but I remember liking Thunder and so far Raccoon is looking promising.

              I do want to branch out again trying other apps as Jerboa (while nice) I feel is lacking a bit

              It’s functional enough but kinda meh

              I like the UI though

                Yeah it seems a little spartan. But, it’s probably going to be the most up-to-date whenever there is an update to Lemmy itself since it’s the same dev.
