Been on Memmy since the early stages and… damn that development speed!

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

Yeah it’s so impressive isn’t it

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (8 children)

I'm on android but I've tried a bunch (connect, summit, wefwef, another I forget) but I think Jerboa is the best. Seems the most functional by far. Can't wait for boost, though.

[–] Samowar 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Tried all of them, liftoff is way better

After using boost for years the biggest thing I hate about jerboa is that short and long taps on comments is backwards. Drives me nuts.

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

This is literally my one and only complaint for jerboa. Its maddening, I need an option to change the short and long taps lmao

I miss the left-right scrolling navigation of bacon reader 😭

I just want to view one post and it's comments at a time and swipe left and right to switch between posts. Why does no other app do that?

I recently gave Connect a try and now I have a new favorite App. The devs working on Lemmy apps are awesome. 😍

i’m beginning to suspect the devs in this space are in some secret competition over which of them can get us to say the silliest words with complete sincerity

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

man wait a bit it's my day 1 on wefwef.app

[–] itsJoelleScott 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm sticking with wefwef until I get my iPhone later this year.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Are you all able to upvote comments on Memmy? It’s the one issue I’m having with it

[–] L1C4U5E 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes! It has swipe actions. Swipe to the right for up and down vote. Swipe to the left to reply to a comment.

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

That was it, thank you!

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

Please accept this upvote, brought to you courtesy of Memmy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I need one that allows me to submit too. For now Wefwef is still beating Memmy on look/feel for me. Liftoff! has the best featureset but I don't like the looks so much.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Patiently waiting for Sync to release on Android....

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

or boost...

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Memmy doesn’t load my profile page :(

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was having this issue as well and went back and forth with the dev on that. What he worked out was that capitalization of the username was causing issues. I had to delete/re-add my accounts to rectify it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for sharing your fix, unfortunately the username is all lowercase in Memmy, so that isn’t my issue per se.

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

Actually, it needs to be the same capitalization as what you registered with I think. Can you test that?

I’ll do something to try and fix this in the next update, although I believe something was already submitted as a fix for this to Lemmy iirc.

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

That was the fix, Thank you.

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

No issues here. Can you login though or is just your profile it can't load?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I can login, was actually replying from Memmy to see if it got fixed. My other account loads the profile, but this one on this instance doesn’t for some reason, and while I like my blahaj.zone account, I figured it’d be nice to see some of the other stuff and choose for myself what I do or don’t want to see, hence the infosec.pub account that Memmy doesn’t show the profile for.

Though frankly, most of what I see on here that’s different is like exploding-heads garbage, so it’s not like I was really missing out on anything with blahaj.zone.

As a former boost user, I'm waiting for Boost for Lemmy

[–] DontTreadOnBigfoot 7 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Is it native or web app?

Can't stand constantly exiting out of wefwef every time I try to swipe back to the main page

Ngl I think I like wefwef more after using both. Something just feels cleaner about it

[–] mrhenry77 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

sadly the beta is full for ios

[–] buycurious 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s available in the App Store if you have an iPhone!

[–] mrhenry77 4 points 1 year ago

thanks you so much! writing this from the awesome memmy app, a lot better than Mlem, imo

[–] esmazer 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

An app "to rule them all" would need to be multiplatform

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

This is my only grievance with the app, hope it'll come soon! Meanwhile I'm using mlem for multi-instance. Memmy is for leisure-browsing!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait are we talking proprietary software here? What is this, reddit?

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

We can't talk about proprietary software on Lemmy? 😱

Wish it was on Android :( I've tried a bunch but none of them are great. The closest was wefwef, but being a web app has it's problems. I think I'm going back to Jerboa for now.

How do i get Memmy? I can't find any way to download it for android.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

buy an iphone and download it

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

I think at one point they were planning on having an Android version too, but have scrapped it for now.

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

Probably because Lemmy apps for Android are saturated as hell so they decided to focus on the smaller base

Been with the great Memmy since I joined. What’s this peasant wefwef I keep hearing about?

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

Memmy for my phone, wefwef for the desktop. Best of both worlds

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

Been using Memmy since I moved away from Reddit and love it. Might be time to pick up Swift so I can help the dev.
