There are a handful of them, Sync and Boost have ads / ad-free versions and Connect was closed but without ads from what I remember. I'm not familiar with the rest of the closed source ones
I keep Voyager installed as the FOSS alternative, and then the rest I add and remove every now and then to try out.
Boost and Sync are popular because people coming from Reddit have used them for years, and are familiar with the interface / dev. If it helps them get familiar with the fediverse then I'm all for it
Users dedicated to Eternity are similar. It was forked (by a different developer) from Infinity for Reddit, and the UX is still exactly the same.
Seems abandoned unfortunately
I confess that I regularly use Boost. I used it back in the day on Reddit, and the ads don't bother me that much at all cough pihole cough. I used jerboa when I first tried Lemmy, and I still use it from time to time, but on my old tablet it kept crashing or logging me out, and Boost has been pretty reliable.
