Crazy to see how quickly a handful of talented developers have managed to build several feature-rich Lemmy apps in such a short amount of time. Really drives home the point that the reddit’s official app—with it’s 80 person dev team—must just suck on purpose.
It’s not really the devs that are to blame, but the management team.
Memmy is winning so far for me.
Try WefWef. Really impressive for a lightweight webapp. It behaves like. Real app once installed on your home page.
I really like wefwef visually, but the scrolling on the homepage is a bit too buggy tbh.
Not sure if it WefWef or the fact that the Lemmy server are under heavy load while being updated to beta versions an in a day.
Ever since I started using wefwef, about 3 days ago, it has had that issue—the other 4 clients I’ve tried haven’t.
Fwiw, I ain’t trying to throw shade at wefwef, it’s just something I’ve been a bit displeased to experience by using the app.
Same. Pace of development is impressive. 6 updates in the last 24 hours! And they’re noticeable improvements.
wefwef FTW
I’m on wefwef as an Apollo replacement. Enjoying it!
They even now have a part where you can export your Apollo JSON data to look for subreddits like the ones you followed. I unsubscribed from all my subreddits, but good for others.
Yeah, wish I had seen that prior to nuking my Reddit account and Apollo install from orbit. Oh well, get to just rediscover everything organically now
Apollo locked everyone out after the API changes anyway so there was no way to export as of yesterday.
Set your clock back to a date before the 30
Thanks to this thread, I discovered wefwef. It’s amazing what people can create in such a short amount of time! I legit feel like I’m using Apollo again.
I stumbled upon Wefwef by accident right after setting up an account here and really like it.
Straight forward, easy to use and similar in appearance to Apollo and the older Reddit client.
I don’t see the point of squabbles. It’s just going to turn into reddit if it catches on. The fediverse at least has decentralization built in and is more flexible if someone becomes a jerk.
Mine looks similar, though I haven’t got any squabbles. Gotta try a bunch and see what sticks! Two favourite apps at the moment are Memmy and Liftoff
Nice. What is the Lemmy app?
That looks like the Lemmy.world web page homepage bookmark.
I’m liking Memmy best so far I think. WefWef does look so much like Apollo but it’s missing a few things, saved posts for one.
Yeah +1 for Memmy. Really impressed with how far it’s evolved in such a short time. I personally can’t imagine ever getting that amount of work done tbh.
That’s a webapp (just save lemmy page to your homescreen)
Any Lemmy apps that remember your comment sort option? I vastly prefer “Top” to “Hot”, but neither Jerboa nor Wefwef seem to have a way to change the default.
As of like a day ago, Memmy lets you change the sort order for comments. There’s no way to set the default yet, but I’m sure that will come at some point.
Which is the best one in your opinion?
I am using liftoff and loving it so far .
