There seems to be many lemmy apps available. I already tried few apps though I don’t even know where to find most of the others. Instead of trying every single one of them I’d like to know if there’s anything similar to RIF. Here’s some key features of RIF:

  • Simple. Mostly text and no complicated UI elements.
  • Information density. I can see a list of eight posts on my screen. Again, it’s just text with no UI decorations.
  • One handed browsing. As I hold my phone with right hand I can easily access both linked url and comments of a post with my right thumb (buttons on right side of the screen).
  • Comment navigation. This is not as important but in larger threads it’s useful to navigate between parent comments.

If there’s nothing similar available, maybe these could be added to an existing implementation. I could even try to help as I am programmer, though I don’t know much about mobile app development.

    I switched from RiF to Jerboa easily. The small card view and dark theme is pretty much the same as I used on RiF. I don’t remember all the settings but you can customise some stuff. I did that in Rif too, so I’m not even sure what the default is in either app anymore.

    There’s been a lot of bugs and crashes lately but I hope it gets better with time, but appearance wise this is as good as RiF IMO.
