Memmy is an early fave (posting from it now) but it reminds me so much of the Dec-Feb app development days for Mastodon. So many fun options to try out!

+1 here, which do you like the most? I’ve been running Memmy and currently happy with it outside of a few misc design choices (couldn’t figure out how to reply for hours rofl)

Memmy so far, but Mlem starts catching up. Memmy has more active devs tho. I feel like Limbo is not as developed and seems to be a inspired by the „original“ reddit app. Thunder seems nice too, haven’t tried that much so far but definitely inspired by Apollo as well.

Can you search for communities on Mlem? I have Memmy and Mlem, but Nemmy seems much easier to search…

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

Yes you can since ever. When in your feed just tap on the middle too and then again on community…

Thanks, just tried it.

I’d have to put my vote in for Mlem. Super easy to use, and just plain works.

Can you multiple account like you can with Lemmy? I’m going back and forth, and I like both so far. I like the dark purple theme in Lemmy

[–] eoddc5 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes. Same with Memmy

Weirdness with accounts on liftoff. You NEED to have multiple since it doesn’t seem to allow federated interaction. Like I can be logged into my lemmy.world and see lemmy.ml stuff but if I try to vote or comment it will tell me I’m not on the right server account so I can’t do that.

Thank you!

I was beginning to wonder if I just didn't understand how the Fediverse works. I see posts but when I try to upvote and/or comment on them I get an error that I'm not logged in.

So just to be clear: With my account on lemmy.world, and that instance being federated with lemmy.ml, I should be able to interact with communities / posts / comments from both just the same? (I get the deal with beehaw…)

[–] eoddc5 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes! But it is currently not working that way in liftoff.

Memmy, Mlem both work as intended

For instance, this entire thread is on lemmy.ml, I’m replying using my lemmy.world account, using Memmy app

[–] Drunemeton 4 points 1 year ago

Okay then. I'm sure the Liftoff devs are aware of, and working on, a fix.

I have to say this is a very exciting time to be here! I haven't had this much fun since I left Digg for reddit cough cough years ago.

I found a fix for that. On you homepage go to the top and instead of subscribed, for example, choose the subscribed under your instance. If you did it right it should say subscribed@lemmyinstance at the top. An example for my instance:

[–] eoddc5 2 points 1 year ago

That is not a fix.

That is not how lemmy (or the fediverse) is supposed to work.

Ive been using Memmy and Mlem and both are great. I think overall Memmy feels a bit more ahead in terms of features particularly after the latest few updates. The main think I miss in Mlem is the availability to zoom in on images and in Memmy a way to change font size.
