Mlem: missing a lot of features but the ones that they have work very well. This one feels the most native because it is. This is my current choice because it is actually native and open source. That icon is ugly as hell, though.
Voyager: this one is a month ahead on features of ALL other lemmy apps. this one is the most feature-rich in that they have the ability to edit posts and do all kinds of other stuff. The non-native web app aspect causes it to lose LOTS of points in my book
Memmy: this one was easily my favorite but the recent updates have started to show how poorly architected it is. They have a TON of work to do under the hood to make this one feel solid again…and honestly, I sincerely think it may never feel as responsive and snappy because they made the strange decision to make an iOS only app in react native…
Liftoff: this one is pretty good but it just goes too far from the standard that Apollo set that I feel awkward in it.
Bean: this one is early days but already has some cool stuff that I wish other apps had (the profile button at the bottom has the icon from the currently signed-in user) I had been asking for that feature from other devs for FAR too long.

Fair enough.
It really isn’t that bad, though, IMO. Here’s my super-customized xmonad tiling window manager NixOS config fully realized in a github repo. Feel free to fork it if it helps tame some of the intimidation factor.
I recommend NixOS. ;)
Unless you want to run a stake pool on Cardano, you’d have to fork and modify my config.
I absolutely adore it. Today, I added a simple bash script to one of my config options that runs just before my nix flake update command that gets the sha256 hash for the latest release of the Cardano-node then writes that hash into my flake.nix file using sed. Then, when I do a flake update that little hash update (that I used to manually do) is also built in.
Glad to help! I’m merely standing on the shoulders of the giants before me.
Why the fuck is Plex even a company? Attention venture capitalists: Get your money grubbing fingers the fuck off decent technologies that should in no way be tied to profit-seeking. We live in a dystopian hellscape.
Instant upvote for NixOS! ;)
This! ⬆️
The best OS to host on will someday be NixOS, bar none IMO. However, that BEST title will depend heavily on someone sharing a config that leverages the power of NixOS to make it as foolproof and rock-solid as other projects that leverage Nix’s power and reliability.
I’d host an instance if we could would move from the world of Docker being the only game in town toward a more reproducible standard config that uses Nix.
I use xmonad and won’t switch until there’s a viable alternative (probably never).
