It’s basically a really well polished app to browse the website on Android. It has a lot of features and also very good customization options since it kept adding features over the years.
Having a Lemmy client that good will make it much easier to use on a phone.
I’m the type of person who gets tired of a DE after using it for too long, so I’m using Budgie right now and I really like it. However XFCE is pretty nice, too, it’s what I used to use.
That’s true, but aren’t federated pages at a disadvantage since you can look at them from any instance thus decreasing the number of links to one specific post (which is how PageRank works)? Since then instead of one post on page 1 you’d have 10 from different instances on page 3. I’m thinking this could be fixed if all posts had a link to the post on the original instance, which is where the ranking scores would then be more likely to aggregate.
It’s just a patch in the Manager. You may need to download the free version APK from somewhere like APKMirror and patch that though (you can also disable ads so it’s like the Pro version), as there don’t seem to be any Pro APKs and you can’t patch an installed app without root.
