Just signed up today with my favourite 3rd party app biting the dust tomorrow.

So far it's taken a bit of getting used to, but I quite like the look of the thunder app with Lemmy. Be keen to keep an eye out for kbin apps too.

Looks pretty quiet here though. Going to miss the 'why is there a helicopter over my suburb?' posts

Sad how is getting gutted like that. Meanwhile you can get the Apollo carbon copy it's called WefWef. It's just I'm gonna miss my town's small subreddit, Toowoomba, can't find it here.

Wefwef looks interesting, but is that apple only or am I a n00b?

Nevermind. I was being a noob. Figured it out. Also can't figure out how to edit posts.

EDIT: figured out how to edit. Wefwef is pretty bloody good

The web app is based on the Apollo that started this whole protest after all, and it still doesn't have all its functions yet, but it's amazing. So glad Android users get to try it. And with how Lemmy is ramping up, I'm finding myself more active here than in Reddit by magnitudes of order. It just feels like the early days of the internet.

@Demigod787 now if it only worked for kbin :(

It just looks like an iOS app... And as an Android user, it's disgusting.

Yep. I was initially excited because it had extra functionality but after further reading, thunder is in the process of implementing those features and is a much nicer app

It's a webapp, works both on Apple and Android.

It’s a webapp so you can use it on any phone
