As a reader it's vastly better than Jeroba but the notifications are hidden in a very awkward way and I haven't seen access to the mod tools yet or figured out how to search for new communities.

Truthfully, it was my least favorite of all of the Lemmy apps. I didn't like it's user interface. Was it recently updated?
Same. It looks and feels like "my first flutter app". I switched to Thunder, which is also made with flutter, but is much more pleasant to use.
LIftoff is fine, but I like Thunder better.
Thunder is what I'm using right now, too. It's the most "clean" looking dedicated Lemmy app I've seen so far. Though I'm most likely going to switch to Boost for Lemmy once it's available. I'm really looking forward to launching the rocket again :D
For me Thuder has better UI but lacks functionality, f.e. answering to replies is nightmare because no context of comment.
I'm just bothered by the fact that it won't let me download memes lol
The UI is a little too cluttered and messy for my liking but it's a solid app! Love FOSS software
FOSS software
I love free and open source software software, too! ๐
Does it / will it have mod tools available? The only way I've found so far to access the mod inbox, pin threads etc is through the Lemmy website
Apparently there are plans for mod tools.
