Using browser for now. Waiting Sync for lemmy
I mostly navigate it from my laptop, but in the cases where I use my phone, Jerboa is still my go-to
Buggy at times, but I like the UI. Definitely open to new apps though. Connect didn't feel like my type, but I might try out
Boost once it's done, since a friend of mine recommended it for Reddit.
Memmy, and occasionally WefWef if I need to check on any odd behavior in Memmy.
If both are acting odd I web version it to confirm, then file a report.
Chrome. Waiting for Boost for lemmy to be released.
Using the website as PWA right now, the layout works well for me and there's no bugs to speak of
I am trying memmy and wefwef; so far I prefer wefwef as I find the memmy light theme to be too light - fonts are too washed out. Don’t like dark themes at all. I wish wefwef would show the current date and time though.
I have lurked on Reddit for many years, using Apollo, but never had an account. It seems that memmy does not let you browse communities without creating an account, so here I am. What I have seen so far of lemmy, it appears a lot friendlier than Reddit. This may induce me to actually contribute in future.
Memmy. It even had a full release on the App store a couple of hours ago, so no need for testflight anymore. There are updates almost daily and it gets better and better.

Thunder on Android
Liftoff. I also tried Jerboa and Connect, but Liftoff just has the best look and feel. Having said that, as an old Boost for Reddit user I'll be switching to Boost for Lemmy as soon as it releases.

Connect gang here
I really like liftoff and alexandrite.
jerboa
Jerboa was recommended first and it's available on fdroid, haven't had the need to switch from it yet.
Memmy (iOS) reminds me of Apollo, feel right at home. I don't even miss Reddit at this point.

I’m using Mlem and I like it so far
Connect
I keep jumping between wefwef and liftoff.
With time they are all going to improve and have the things we all want, then I guess it will just be down to taste
Currently liftoff, though I still have jerboa installed for some things.
Using Jerboa right now. It's mostly good. I'm just unsure if the search function is returning all communities.. but maybe that's not possible? Still learning the details of the fediverse lol
Mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff. All of them function nicely.
All of them rig now.
So far really liking wefwef, but connect and liftoff are really good as well.
The app ecosystem will be changing a lot in the next couple months so I will keep testing whatever keeps coming out.
Used Connect but switched to mobile browser. Lemmy behave way less buggy and way more stable, while UI and functionality are just fine. Will try Sync when it comes to beta though.
The web app for now. works well for me.
I'm liking the initial beta version of Artemis quite a bit.
Same. I like it (and miss Apollo). But I also like the web interface too.
@DuskLoaf Just started using Ice Cubes for Mastodon (for this reply) but also using WefWef and Mlem.
