The best Lemmy app so far is "Wefwef" hands down. If you loved Apollo you'd love this. (self.apple_enthusiast)

The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I'm just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It's a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!

(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)

Installation:

https://wefwef.app/settings/install

WefWef's community page: c/wefwef

Courtesy of [email protected] for telling us about it.

Update:

Having issues? It's to do with rate limitations, this should be resolved soon but right now you can Use:

https://w.opnxng.com/settings/install

Here's the Dev's notes on that:

w.opnxng.com - wefwef hosted by Opnxng in Singapore.

So when I login to an instance, am I sending my credentials through the wefwef.app server? Because that makes me nervous.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No you’re not. You can view the source code, it’s open source.

[–] Demigod787 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Which is the best part imo. I wonder if this can be ported into an IPA in the future, it's stellar but not on par with native app performance imo.

[–] balder1991 1 points 2 years ago

And that’s the reason apps are still native. Anything that involves UI requires a lot of performance, especially nowadays with higher refresh rates. The whole point of SwiftUI (Apple’s new UI framework) is that it is both easier AND results in better performance when used correctly.

According to their privacy policy:

When you use wefwef.app, we proxy information to your Lemmy instance in order to overcome CORS restrictions with Lemmy.

They say they don’t log but you do need to trust them because all traffic flows through them.
