I don’t understand the hate for charging for a product. I pay for a Mastodon client. If a Lemmy client that I really liked cost money and I felt the price was reasonable, I’d support that developer, too.

I would pay for a good native iOS App. Memmy is nice but apps using web frameworks always have more limitations than any native one.

Mlem is SwiftUI and FOSS! I know there are some issues with the current App Store build (weeps in janky scrolling) but we've got a major update hitting beta tomorrow and the App Store as soon as Apple will allow that's going to fix it.

WOW! i did try out mlem in its early days, but since i browse lemmy mainly on ipad, it wasn’t for me so i moved to memmy

Just checked back on it and now the iPad experience is miles better than memmy. Guess i’m coming back to mlem

Great work guys! Looking forward to tomorrow’s testflight

Looking forward to trying out the updated build!

My only gripe that makes me stay with Mlem is lack of any method of saving/sharing just the photo of a post.

EDIT: I meant Mlem, not Memmy.

We've got that feature in testing right now, we're hoping to have it out to the App Store in the next couple days!

Try Mlem, it’s native iOS. It’s a work in progress but the user experience is great and the beta and active development seem promising.

Try Avelon: https://testflight.apple.com/join/IzB0ZiBO

This and Mlem are my favorites.
