summit is the only other client that i tried and wasn’t irritated by, but I’ve reverted back to jerboa after a few days. i like how streamlined jerboa is, and how it just works and always has.
it looks like the summit dev is working overtime getting everything in order and finishing several feature rollouts, so I’ll check that out again in a couple of months.
I have a hard time believing Summit Dev has time for a day job! 😂
I feel every bug is patched same/next day and they keep constantly adding to the feature set. There have been a ton of upgrades this year, and it was perfect to me once they added custom user tags, so now everything is just a bonus.
I like all their decisions and they take feedback in what works for us, and at this point you can turn almost anything on/off so you get what you want.
the dev seems very dedicated, that’s why I’ll give summit another try later. quick links don’t work yet, not all the setting toggles l are functionally tied yet to the features. there are also several tiny post/link/layout issues that I notice but don’t have to deal with on jerboa.
I’m interested to see where summit goes, it is the only other lemmy client I used for more than a couple hours.
I’ve test driven a majority of the apps at this point, and I think the variety of apps we have to choose from is impressive. They all feel pretty different too, so everyone should be able to find what works for them.
I think it was Connect I kept installed longest other than Summit and the discontinued Liftoff. I was a huge Boost fan on Reddit, but never jelled with the Lenny implementation.
Boost still looked nice, but the posting UI was terrible for me. I couldn’t figure out how to do half the things I wanted to do, and since I became a regular poster using a ton of media and formatting, it was just a no-go.
The dev has done a lot to help with my specific use cases, and I haven’t started since. I gave everything a look around the end of the year to make sure I wasn’t missing out on anything, but at this point I don’t feel I’m missing a thing from the experience.
I like the apps are all independent in that we can try one or all and hop between them at will without losing anything.
jerboa.

me too on boost!
boost was the only way i used reddit, nothing else came close.
I can’t tell what’s different in the implementation here, but it does not click.
jerboa for lemmy is the closest to the simplicity I enjoyed in boost for reddit, and I do think summit merits another look in a month or two

yea, it is nice that the devs are so dedicated to creating unique clients for us
and their work itself is so impressive.
