I use Thunder on Android for my lemmy.zip account.

Interstellar for my kbin.earth and fedia.io accounts.

Trying out piefed with piefed.social because of their Topics and custom feeds. No "release ready" mobile apps yet, but IIRC either Interstellar or Thunder is trying out supporting piefed.

I think I'm going to like piefed for the custom feeds. That's my most missed function from reddit, the multireddits. Their default Topics works well enough, but I have my opinions on it, and piefed allow I can set my own.

I don't really use other fedithings. I'm like the normies, I want some kind of algo-feeding for microblogging and whatever instagram is categorised as, except for the threadiverse/reddit-like.
Mbin(Right now) - Interstellar

Misskey fork - Aria

Pixelfed - Pixelix

Mastodon - Moshidon
Thunder is my main Lemmy app on Android.

Raccoon and Voyager are kept as backups. Voyager is also available as a PWA.

I use Pachli on the rare occasions that I look at my Mastodon account.

Pixelix is a pretty good Pixelfed app.

A locally hosted instance of Alexandrite. I'm almost always viewing on a laptop.
- For those of us on lemmy.zip we can search a.lemmy.zip and it brings up an alexandrite browser version of lemmy.
  
  We can also do m.lemmy.zip for mobile
  
  Is this exclusive to lemmy.zip or so other do this too?
  
  A few hosts offer alternative frontends, that's how I found Alexandrite in the first place. A few will alternatively offer Proton. And I've seen a couple that have an old. subdomain where they run mlmym
- Oh neat! Thats kinda what im looking for.
Jerboa, very Reddit is Fun like, on f-droid too!
- Thats my favorite!
Vojager for Lemmy and Pixelix for Pixelfed. (Also PeerTube for PeerTube)
I use Arctic on iOS, and the web interface on desktop
Photon. It hides the cruft, for a more zen experience.
I like to switch between Voyager and Mlem on iOS.
Lemmy: Photon/tesseract on desktop, summit on mobile. I also use the default UI a lot (i used to dislike it, but i get quite overwhelmed with photon/tesseract sometimes, and i need something simpler.)

Mastodon: Phanpy on desktop, default on mobile.

Pixelfed: Pixelix.

Peertube: Grayjay.
Lemmy: Sync on Android, Photon on Windows (no native Windows app)
I keep switching between using Summit (recently went open source), Thunder, Jerboa and the Tesseract web UI. But mostly Jerboa. It opens the fastest. The nicest looking one is Thunder.
Was using kbin, now using Fedora.io which uses mbin.
Can highly recommend Summit! Perfect for Lemmy and it has recently gone open-source. !summit@lemmy.world
Used to use Sync and I still prefer it in a lot of ways, but I can see the writing on the wall what with ljdawson not having reared his head for well over a year. That app will stop working when Lemmy 1.0 rolls out.

Switched over to Summit and I'm slowly getting used to it. Still missing some features and options and having some bugs, but overall it's good and I think it will grow into being the best app for me in the future.
