After Apollo for Reddit was wiped from the face of the earth together with most third party reddit clients, there has been an empty void as Apollo was pretty much the only social media app I used.

Downloaded and played around in Memmy for a bit and OMG this app is beautiful.

PS: Thank you so much for also being back the swipe to Upvote/Downvote feature. I discovered it on accident by muscle memory from Apollo 😏👌🏻

They were initially developing Android side by side but the focus became making the best iOS experience as possible. It remains to be seen whether or not they’ll continue onward with Android.

There are a bunch of Android solutions out there that are quality. Thunder, Liftoff, Jerboa - plus stuff like Sync is coming soon.

Since it's expo, I'm sure it can also be able to create an android build in theory

Well, that explains all the trouble I had trying to build it for Android. I did get it to compile once, but it crashed immediately after launching.

That makes sense I suppose.

Besides, Android users have wefwef too

Probably the reason for the app not looking as ‘native’ as Apollo, I’d assume.

Sounds like a ‘you’ problem… 🤷🏻‍♂️
