Hear me out: Infinity for Lemmy
/u/whupazz is working on a reddit compatible api for lemmy, meaning most 3rd party apps should work with little or no modification. See it working with RedReader already: https://imgur.com/a/IF5HYGz

Could this mean Apollo for Lemmy 😍
Whoa that’s pretty cool. Thanks for the link
Looks promising, I can’t wait!
I wish!! I love Infinity.
That would be fantastic.
We can dream
don’t tease me like that
That would be a warm, liquid dream. How amazing
Only one of them has a quintillion dollars to spend on making their shit look good. I’m less forgiving of that one.
BoostForLemmy? 👉👈
The dev of Jerboa based it off of Boost for Reddit. The only way you would get an exact copy is if the dev of boost decided to move over to Lemmy. Doubtful, but possible.
Big if true. Would make my dreams come true.
Haha seriously tho now it seems we’re getting a few more developer contributions, so hopefully its UX can improve.

Thank you so much for your work on the app, leaving this comment with it as we speak.
No probs!
Jerboa has bad UX because it needs work. Official Reddit app has bad UX because the developer wants it that way.
Honestly, and I say this with no disrespect, but I feel like the UX is pretty lackluster across this entire ecosystem. It’s understandable, since I would imagine the bulk of developer priority is going towards just making things work as reliably as possible on the backend side of things. Fortunately, given the open source nature of things, I feel like the community will fill these gaps in over time. :)
well jerboa has a better ux though
Yeah hopefully it becomes better. The biggest problem for me so far is the choppy scrolling.
Well, the good thing about Jerboa is that anyone can just make changes to it and send them to the devs, so now that more people are using Lemmy, it will improve really quickly!
Its better than the reddit app already, but thats not a high bar to reach lmao
Compared to the third party apps tho, its still nowhere close. With that said, the recent update already improved so much so I have faith.
Tbh really hoping that 3rd party apps shift from Reddit to Lemmy cuz man that’d be the life
Rif becomes Lif. Yes please
