    Hey, you should try Liftoff (it’s an actual app) or Wefwef (a webapp that feels like a native app).

    Both of those are much better than Connect.

      Just tried installing Wefwef, and the first thing that hits me, is the lack of dark mode under appearance settings. Am I blind, or is that not a thing in Wefwef?

      EDIT: Liftoff feels rather nice, the menus need a little getting used to (and that big obnoxious ‘+’ in the middle of everything), but overall it seems like a nice experience.

      Not sure if any of these are better than Connect, but I’ll keep them all installed and keep using them in shifts, to see which one feels better.

      EDIT: 2 weeks later I’ve switched full-time to Liftoff.

          That’s unfortunate, as I like having my phone in light mode for regular daytime use, and keep my “chill apps” dark for when sitting in the evening and scrolling.

          But it does make sense, thanks for the reply. :)

        I think it follows your system theme, I’m running it on dark mode.

      Thank you! I just downloaded Liftoff. It does look much cleaner than Connect, but it’s having trouble loading stuff, hopefully that gets worked out
