Hi there! So there's been a ton of work by a bunch of developers that are really frustrated with Apollo going away end of month.

That's why I created (yet another) Apollo-like Lemmy client called wefwef - https://wefwef.app.

Right now it's targetting iOS - you can still use it on Android phones, but it's untested. An Android theme is in the works!

So, why wefwef?

  • Progressive web app — It's easy to try, and works cross platform. Get the same experience on your phone, tablet and computer. If you like it, add to home screen for a like-native experience.
  • Open source! Self hosting and hacking is totally doable

There's a TON of work to be done, but the basics are there (browsing, commenting and voting). More to come soon! Let me know what you think.

Wow, thank you! 😊

Lots of credit goes to Ionic (https://ionicframework.com)!

Two quick feature requests.

  1. Cannot see how to make a top level post on a community. I am commenting from wefwef here, so that is clear.
  2. Can you enable a “pull down to refresh” in the web app? Maybe this doesn’t make sense, but for me in iOS, it is just second nature and feels weird when it doesn’t stretch and bounce.

Oops, I think you found a bug where pull to refresh isn't working on feeds. I'll fix that.

EDIT: Pull to refresh on feeds should be working now. Might have to open and force close the app a couple times to force it to update.

And new creating a new post in a community is also coming soon! 😊

Pull to refresh now works after killing all and reopening. New bug, keyboard doesn’t load when trying to search. Maybe this is just my phone, but just want to share what im seeing.

[–] aeharding 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks! The keyboard is showing on my device on search, but I'll keep an eye out.

FYI, this is what I’m seeing. I killed app and restarted to verify it is still doing it.

Hmm. Usually that happens if you have a physical keyboard plugged in, or are viewing in a simulator.
