As a fellow iOS user, Memmy is pretty sweet for a version 0.0 beta app.

[–] remus 54 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Really enjoying Memmy too! Dev seems to be moving at a quick pace. The app is already functional and getting better each day

How have I not found this!?

I wanted to check out Mlem, but it’s full. Lemur I think is discontinued. There is one that’s coming called Artemis, but that’s not available yet.

Memmy is honestly just what I was looking for. Cheers!

I’ve been testing both and I definitely prefer Memmy overall. Mlem has better image display options and has search. Memmy doesn’t display images unless you tap on the post. Search should be released in the next day or two, though.

Artemis being an Apollo clone had me very excited, though.

Edit: new app just released on TestFlight showing real promise: Limbo

[–] mamalapandu 5 points 1 year ago

Wow, Limbo is looking really good. It already feels better than the official Reddit app.

[–] KuroJ 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for mentioning this. Just downloaded it and I’m loving it so far. Very clean layout and some features that Memmy or Mlem don’t have yet, such as being able to save posts and comments!

[–] _finger_ 2 points 1 year ago

Limbo feels very Apollo

[–] FlaxPicker 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You are able to login with a kbin acc on it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

yeah! https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp has some links (including beta sign up)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

kbin doesn’t have APIs enabled so Apps can’t talk to it yet

I might just be dumb but how would I download this for iOS? It says it’s for iOS and android but I can’t find info for TestFlight download anywhere

[–] timespace 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] cod 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the link!

[–] le_saucisson_masque 2 points 1 year ago

For iOS users, you can install Thunder using AltStore

[–] lesnake 3 points 1 year ago

Im using jerboa and it looks great!

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Both memmy and mlem have been great in their own ways thus far. Both are in testflight and getting regular updates, in addition to the news about sync there is also news about another new one called artemis that is aiming to be apollo styled.

[–] michaelfone 2 points 1 year ago

All three claim to be Apollo-like. It’ll be a while before any of them will be even close to how feature rich Apollo was though.

[–] jesusrp98 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would you like a more 'Material' lemmy app on iOS??

[–] feifei 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] LargeHardonCollider 3 points 1 year ago

Fr I’m glad people have moved on from material design for iOS apps. Always felt like there was so much wasted space, and not enough gestures

[–] FiendishFork 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah I’ve been enjoying Memmy. Considering how early it is, it works really well.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Memmy in case anybody wants to join the TestFlight!

[–] nero 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the link! Thought the beta was closed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yea it’s definitely a good start!

[–] MrShelbySan 2 points 1 year ago

+1 for Memmy, dev has been quick and efficient in fixing the issues we’ve been reporting. Loving it so far

[–] kratoz29 1 points 1 year ago

Not that it affects you, but seems like Memmy it is about to come for Android as well!
