I’m glad that was helpful!

It looked great and I really wanted to stick with the dev on it once they originally announced they were going to make a Lemmy version, but even after a couple months going between it and some other apps, while it looked much the same as Boost for Reddit, it just didn’t feel the same.

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.

I agree, they definitely have to be passionate about it, and I feel it really shows. Truly shocked it never seems as popular as some others. I’ve given a number of bug reports and feedback/suggestions and they’ve all been addressed shockingly quick, and it’s fun to think this or that bit is there just because I agreed nicely. 😇

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.

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.

Summit is peak Lemmy!

Awesome app, awesomer dev. If it doesn’t do what you want, talk to them and they’ll probably do it.

Not FOSS, but free and no ads.

Would not be enjoying Lemmy near as much without it thanks to all the great features like multi-community support and endless customization.
