Title + Why you like that client?

I am using eternity from some hours and my fav is liftoff.

There was a poll a week ago and it reached over 6000 votes. That won't answer Why, but you get a general idea which clients people use.

That was before boost was released. I bet it'll look different now.

Unless people value their data and won't use boost

[–] Encode1307@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

They're using sync. I think that has the same issues

How liftoff is so far down on that list baffles me

[–] itsaj26744@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago

Same here my fav client

[–] Virual@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a good app, but it also hasn't received an update in two months.

That's a shame, well I guess I'll keep using it till it stops working. Then I would probably be switching back to Eternity as I used to use Infinity

[–] Tutunkommon@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I used Liftoff for quite a while. It just stopped working one day about 3-ish weeks ago. Couldn't ever get it to work again. I might be an outlier, but if others had the same experience it may explain it.

I'm using Eternity, because I used Infinity for Reddit before and it's just the most familiar client for me.

It needs to be updated to include Boost... maybe in a couple of weeks...
