I initially tried Lemmy and thought it was too complicated - until I tried it with the wefwef.app web app. It’s design is really similar to Apollo, and is quite responsive for being a web app. Definitely give it a try before giving up on Lemmy.

Although is it just me or sometimes I find the posts refresh slowly or not at all

no it happens to me too, it’s still a bit buggy, the developer was getting the app rate limited at one point by Lemmy. Luckily they seem to be pretty active on the github page (it’s open source!) https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef

Wait, it’s all in Java Script (well, technically it’s i. typeScript with Vite JS). that means you could host your own WefWef instance on a private server like a Raspberry Pi or something… interesting. You could have direct access to your own private instance. You could customize or tweak it, and it may help with connection speed when you’re browsing from the same network.

Oh that’s good to know. Thank you!
