Web browser, because it support 100% of piefed features, is always up-to-date with the version of piefed deployed on your server, and means I don't have yet another app installed.
Seriously, the web interface to piefed does everything I need, so I don't really feel the need for a dedicated client. You can create a homepage shortcut to go straight to it, and it acts like a separate app when you do.
I use Voyager for viewing content and the mobile web view if I am posting.
Voyager is a slick experience, but they have zero support for Piefed features.
Been meaning to try Blorp and Interstellar. Would appreciate if Blorp and Interstellar users can comment on how well Piefed features are integrated (post labels, tags, unified cross-post comments, reactions etc).
I've been on Voyager for a while now, but only because I was on lemmy.world before. Got my Piefed instance up last week and I'd love to move to something other than Voyager as well
I’m a little biased, but you should try blorp. I’m the dev lol. No hashtag support yet, but I would be interested in adding this soon. I have to check what’s possible with the PieFed API. Blorp currently supports, creating polls, voting in polls, reacting to posts and comments, and post flairs (labels?).
Summit. Best customizability and very active developer who listens to feedback. Haven't tried any of the other's recently, and I don't feel like I need to.
Agreed. I tried Summit on a whim and found it to be a very pleasant experience.
I've been using Blorp until recently because it supported piefed, and I enjoyed the sleek simplicity of the UI. However, it stopped refreshing my feed even though the mobile site was refreshing, so I switched back to Voyager. It's familiar for me when I used it for Lemmy, and that familiarity goes a long way for me.
Blorp dev here. I would love to help you sort this out, if you’re still interested in using Blorp.
Thank you for your attention on this. Luckily, it seems to be working just fine now, after the latest update. Back to blorp go! ☺️
I've been on Voyager but just installed Blorp after your comment because of PieFed support :)
Blorp dev here. Let me know if you run into any issues or need anything!
Swipe to vote/reply on comments :)
That’s a pretty commonly requested feature. I’m not saying no, but some of the decisions I made about how we render comments makes this complicated. As of right now, there are higher priority things on my list, like making the comments jump around less as they load it. Also adding a comment jump button to move to the next top level comment.
Also adding a comment jump button to move to the next top level comment.
That would be my second request, so I'll take it :)
I recently moved from Voyager to Blorp, because Blorp also supports PieFed's distinctive features, while Voyager can do only what Lemmy can do.
Blorp dev is also very easy to summon when you run into bugs. All you have to do is say “blorp”.
Source: I’m the dev lol
Blorp random nsfw?
Is this a feature request, or bug report?
Hi ! Thank for asking. We have a wiki page that tell you their supported feature.
Sadly, it is outdated. I hope i can update it as soon as possible :
Voyager. It's the first one I picked I guess.
Boost, but that's partially because the dev jumped ship with the Reddit API stuff, and it's pretty damn good. Won't say it has feature parity with whatever the latest is, but I don't know what I don't know, and he fixes stuff as they come up. Been on it for probably 10+ years at this point now I'd think?
Great comments all. I think I'm going to continue using one or more apps for Android. I couldn't seem to get Voyager working right with my piefed instance but I'm thrilled to see all the very active development on Summit. I don't mod or use a lot of the advanced customizations (and I stick w/ piefed rather than Lemmy) but although there are more options than I need, I'm liking Summit, anyhow. Bells & whistles that confound me or have a learning curve tend to deter me. I now have three client apps installed and am running out of storage. I think I might jettison interstellar, no offence to anyone for whom that's a preference.
i have used Boost for the longest time and it added Piefed support, so I opened a piefed account some time ago. I swap between my Lemmy and Piefed accounts
I also have Blorp and Interstellar installed
Boost is good but I just end up using Firefox Nightly and the web version.
I'm using an app called Nora, FWIW.
I used to use boost, but it became a completely unstable mess and the dev was just not bothering to respond to problems. Even though I paid, I abandoned it and I'm not going back.
I switched to Voyager which I'm using now and I'm very happy with.
Others here are talking about Blorp which I'm now considering if for no reason than curiosity.
