Racoon for lemmy Grayjay for video Antennapod for podcasts
Racoon for lemmy
This is the 1st time I decided to check about this (I have heard that name before here), after a 1st glance it looks a lot like Boost for Lemmy, and since Boost seems to be the best working client for me at this moment (image and posts load for example is way faster than Summit, Voyager and Eternity), in terms of speed Sync for Lemmy is faster, but it is so broken with my current instance that is not worth to use it anymore.
I might install Raccoon soonish :)
About the racoon recommendation have you tried other Lemmy apps? Curious what made you choose racoon
I have tried one other app which was Jerboa for lemmy but found Racoon easier to use so I stuck with it ever since.
Nova Launcher
Edge Gestures as an alternative to android gestures
Quick Cursor for easy one handed usage
Panels as a sidebar based quick launch / app switcher

I see you’re a person with great taste in Android apps. Thanks for introducing me to Medito! I need to chill.
Just curious how people really enjoy twitch. I can’t spend time just watching people play games or doing stuff while I could be doing things
I sometimes watch IRL streamers from parts of the world I’ve never been to. I’ve never been to New York City but due to watching streams from a bike messenger I feel like I know the city quite well.
That’s actually nice

Memorion
Comic screen
Lastfm. VivaldiI’m pretty basic:
