Agreed. I feel like the apps in development are trying to make the signup process a bit easier though, so we’ll see how that goes.
Which apps? In many of them I didn't even see a way to register.
I’m currently using the beta for Memmy on iOS. I think it’s prepping for an App Store release today. It’s a good foundation and has promise.
Is it available for download?
Here it is on TestFlight for the beta - https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD
I do believe I got an alert today that it’s prepping for an App Store release later in the day.
Question; cuz I’ve been using Memmy too, and I haven’t had a chance to read into it much. I don’t have the ability to upvote/downvote/reply to individual comments in the app. I’m not sure if it’s a bug on my end or if he just hasn’t had a chance to implement those features yet. Do you have that same issue with it?
I had that issue occasionally. Killing the app and restarting fixed it.
Interesting. I’ve been having that issue non stop. I may try to send in a bug report or something tonight.
I'd also caution that right now is probably a very unique time for the Lemmy world.
That’s true, that’s why I didn’t file a report right away. I’m sure all of these devs are absolutely inundated with bug reports and feature requests right now.
Ah, you know what...(im still learning too). Apparently if you are viewing content from all instances (like those your account arent signed into), you cannot vote or comment in those posts.
Turns out I’m an idiot and I didn’t realize it was a swipe action in the app. I thought I was just missing the reply button.
Are you using the gestures? Swipe left on a comment to reply. I’m using the app right now to reply to you
That’s exactly what it was lol. I spent a minute searching for someone else with the same problem last night and realized what I’ve done.
I forget if it was covered in new account onboarding or not, but it might be worthwhile letting the dev know that it’s not always clear
if you're in iphone, go to wefwef.app with safari and save it as an app, it's infinitely better than default
I second this. Memmy is the most stable and well developed app so far, apart from wefwef, although wefwef is only a web app currently
Memmy for iOS has an onboarding screen starting with ‘do you know how fediverse works’
Most of the devs that worked on 3rd party reddit apps are remodeling to support lemmy. So we are about to get some really good quality apps in the next 4 to 6 weeks.
Is there a list or overview of these hopefully coming apps? I am using Liftoff right now but it’s en beta and lacks a lot compared to Apollo. Would like to test these out when they are coming. Until then I’ll just use Liftoff and suggest features for them to add.
Yep there is a list: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
