I just want to praise wefwef. On iOS it is a great app alternative which you can add to the homepage.

The user experience is very similar to Apollo . Honestly I was a bit afraid if I can switch but now I’m relaxed. This is a great alternative!

You should try memmy. It’s better and actually an app.

People should stop praising "an actual app" as an advantage.

There is nothing in functionality that a good PWA can't do well for a Lemmy client. It's cross platform and can be used in the browser of your choice, without the lock-in to a single app store.

People are coming from a closed system like Reddit because Reddit abused it's power and now they're asking for apps in a store where another company might do the same. I don't get it.

Yep, if anything a PWA is more in the spirit of the fediverse

An open source app would be equally in spirit, I think.
