Still like wefwef better though. Cannot be removed from app stores if some regulation comes along.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago (4 children)

True that! But wefwef is unfortunately a little finicky on my phone. Sometimes scrolling doesn't respond at all :(

[–] NeilH 16 points 1 year ago

That's a bug with safari unfortunately. The trick is to not touch anything for a few seconds then try scrolling again. If you try scrolling too quickly you reset the "counter" though

[–] mriguy 11 points 1 year ago

The devs mentioned that in one of the release notes. They say it’s due to a bug in WebKit. If you touch nothing for a second or two it will unfreeze.

I get a horrible flicker issue with wefwef. Requires me to close and reopen a few times to get it working right. Still using Jerboa mostly since it's basic and functions enough.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That’s my biggest gripe with wefwef

[–] alexius 4 points 1 year ago

I’m just happy to continue using the muscle memory from Apollo.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have way more bugs on Memmy. I can’t even reply to most comments in that app for some reason. Wefwef can be a little finicky but smoother overall for me.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

You can’t reply to comments? You swipe to reply. I have no issues replying on any version of it.

There are bugs but the developers fix a ton very quickly.

i've used a couple of apps but i find jerboa is the best so far. the bugs i encountered were as a result of me being part of a large instance rather than the app itself.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My only thing about Jerboa, is there a way to move the buttons under comments to the left? I use my left hand to browse and reaching all the way to the right is a bit much.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That would be a good feature to add, I'm personally a righty but I'm all for accessibility features.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm also right handed but I use my left hand for my phone. I never realized how weird that was until recently haha.

[–] Marxine 2 points 1 year ago

Same here, it's also really snappy for me.

Patiently waiting for savior Boost for Lemmy

[–] void_hunter 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

same. did you retain boost after July 1? it somehow still works for reddit (not that I'm using reddit at all, just kept it out of curiosity). I loved their new material design and am so excited for the lemmy app.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah I did, I don't know why it kept working but it eventually stopped today. Didn't really care as same as you I only kept if out of curiosity and for all times sake. Might finally uninstall when Lemmy version will come out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It worked until today, so now I'm waiting for the Lemmy version

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Tried and liked both but wefwef is nicer IMHO

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I prefer Memmy to others at the moment.

[–] BeardyGrumps 7 points 1 year ago

Memmy for mobile Wefwef for desktop

Best of both worlds!

[–] lemminer 7 points 1 year ago

Liftoff is nice. I have no complaints as of yet.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's really cool we have so many clients, and more are on the way. :)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yes, it’s amazing we have so many awesome developers!

You all just need to wait for sync fir lemmy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] peppy 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sync for Lemmy like there was Sync for Reddit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I was a boost user. What's Sync got going for it? Using Connect at the moment

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m surprised there aren’t many people talking about Mlem. It’s far from perfect and it still misses some basic features (such as a full screen image viewer lol) but I find it to be the prettiest and most intuitive of the bunch.

I’m preferring Memmy right now, but I’m keeping Mlem and wefwef on my home screen to see how they keep up.

[–] cocolopez 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Currently running Jerboa, liftoff and thunder. Would love to check memmy but couldn't find an APK last time I check the GitHub page, I'm not compiling it myself. I love Jerboa, but recently has been a bit buggy. Liftoff is nice, although I would like to see some changes.

[–] LunchEnjoyer 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] cocolopez 2 points 1 year ago

Android too, but you need to compile it. No apks published.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I thought the update for Jerboa today cleared up a lot of the bugs and really improved the interface. It got really buggy and laggy for a while but I haven't had any issues today at all. I'm really impressed

[–] SeatBeeSate 4 points 1 year ago

Is there apk builds yet?

[–] mrpaw69 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I only found Memmy on AppStore(im in Russian region). Is Wefwef not available in russia?

[–] JaddedFauceet 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wefwef.app is a web client

[–] mrpaw69 3 points 1 year ago

Ah, okay then

[–] MsPenguinette 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ll switch to Memmy once I can respond to comments

[–] BeardyGrumps 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can respond to comments. Swipe the comment from right to left.

For upvotes swipe from left to right.

Yeah I had to ask also...

[–] MsPenguinette 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Well bugger me sideways and call me a good girl, it worked! Thanks!!

They def need to add it the the triple dot menu

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You're a very good girl

[–] BeardyGrumps 2 points 1 year ago

Good girl... :o)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I can’t seem to block communities in wefwef?
