I’d definitely prefer an app. I’ve run into a lot of freezing, actions not registering and a bunch of other small things that aren’t problems in dedicated apps.

Whenever a dedicated Lemmy app pops up I’ll probably be changing over

Yeah same here. Backspace being very laggy when editing comments is a major pain as well. Wefwef is my preferred app at the moment, but I'm waiting impatiently for the showdown between Artemis, Sync and Boost for my ultimate solution.

Where do you notice the freezing? Open an issue with details on the github page

For the record, I prefer wefwef being a web app (PWA). It's amazing the flexibility, fast updates, how lightweight it is and being no-store dependent. That being said, I have a lot of freezing in my iOS (iPhone 13, iOS 16) device using Safari as webview. In Android (Realme, Android 12) using Edge as webview I've never had this problem. When it freeze in iOS, I have to swiping up to access the iOS App Switcher, then I tap on it to reopen it, and usually, the app unfreezes after that. Or sometimes I scroll from other screen area and after a 3 seconds it works. Btw, it only happens to me like 1 time every 2 days. Before the updates, it was more constant, so I think it has been improved

I’ve also had freezing up while scrolling through things, not all that infrequently but often enough to be noticeable. That said it’s a slick app most of the time so I’m curious to see if those performance glitches can be resolved or if it’s an unfortunate byproduct of it being a PWA and the browser being a limitation. Could also be my Lemmy instance being unresponsive, which has been the case at times, but the app not yet handling that gracefully due to being an early release.

Happy to wait and see. When it is flawless, which is most of the time, it’s beyond any web app I can recall using.
