I made a folder with my fav lemmy apps that I tried so far, and they are sorted by favorite to less favorite. By far, wefwef is my most used and I do switch to lifoff sometimes. Also, the official lemmy app is really not bad compared to reddit’s official app. I would say try all of them and see which one works the best for you. waiting for sync and boost to launch. let me know if you have any other suggestions I haven’t tried yet.
What am I doing wrong?
I can post on the Lemmy website (typing this on my desktop right now), and I have downloaded and installed a couple of the apps listed above on my Android phone, but I can’t log-in into any of them.
I have tried many times over a couple of days now so I don’t think it is because of the Reddit refugees swarming this site or those apps, but maybe I am wrong.
One rather confusing thing is that when I try to log into wefwef for instance (but I think the other apps have something similar), it asks for Account’s server. I don’t know. I pick lemmy.world but I am only assuming that is correct. Then the next screen asks for username or email. I’ve tried “Hazdaz”, I have also tried the email this account is tied to. I have tried all lowercase. I have double and triple checked my password. But everytime it says “double check your credentials”.
Your account is on lemmy.world. make sure your selecting it when trying to sign in.
Is there more to the account than just the username? Are you just typing"bananahammock" for your username or “@bananahammock@lemmy.ca” when you log in??
Just bananahammock. But I also need to put lemmy.ca in the server box.
Since you are able to login to the Lemmy website, have you tried changing your password and then logging into an app?
Also I think account server is the site where you originally created your account. I created my account on lemmy.world so that’s what I use.
I literally just changed the password on my desktop. It’s weird because there is no confirmation email or anything like that when you change it. I then grabbed my phone and on wefwef I made sure it was up to date. I typed in the password I just changed my account to on my desktop and I am getting the same error message.
