Looking for something to fill the soon-to-be gaping hole that will be left in the absence of Apollo.

Been using Memmy and it’s very nice. The dev just added themes this morning (heavily under work) and he’s very responsive to bug reports. As others said you’ll need TestFlight to try it out. Cheers!

There are two candidates called mlem and memmy, which are currently available through TestFlight .

[–] lenninscjay 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Memmy is updated almost daily at this point, the App has come a long way just this week even

[–] QuarterSwede 9 points 1 year ago

Memmy is my favorite of them all so far. Gestures are too good to lose after being an Apollohead. Dev has been killing it with updates too.

[–] 4am 8 points 1 year ago

I’ve been browsing using Mlem and Memmy since June 12th. Both are still heavily in the works but they are coming along quickly!

You need to install TestFlight to use either, since they are in beta.

I’ve been using Memmy for over a week now, and the amount of development in that time is insane! It’s progressing so fast, and I don’t even feel the need to use the web version of Lemmy anymore.

Check out wefwef. It’s really great! https://wefwef.app/

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

How’s it compare feature wise to Memmy?

[–] hagerman 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It feels a lot more polished than Memmy and Mlem to me. Which is impressive since it’s a web app.

[–] balder1991 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you mean polished in the sense it looks like native, yeah the dev made a good job!

[–] FiendishFork 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I’m currently using Memmy and it’s pretty good for how early in development it is.

There’s also another app called Artemis that’s in development that’s heavily inspired by Apollo. Still in alpha and they are not yet open for testing.

Memmy, Mlem and Limbo for Lemmy are all nice!

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

Mlem. Memmy. Lemon. Limbo.

I’m using limbo more to than other lately. But I use them all.

[–] R05 8 points 1 year ago

thunder came out on test flight today as well

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Also there’s an iOS app called Lemon in pre-alpha. https://lemm.ee/post/127800

[–] jerrimu 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There are 3-4 active ones, I prefer Mlem so far.

[–] moosh 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any way to get an invite to it? Link seems to be down.

Mlem is very good. I’m running both Mlem and Memmy but keep going back to Mlem at the moment.

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

May be worth adding Limbo to that list too!

[–] urbanracer34 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your handle seems very familiar. I think we may have crossed paths before on reddit?

I agree, Apollo's absence will leave a gaping hole.

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

Odd. I haven’t used it on Reddit before.

[–] urbanracer34 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I must have you confused with someone else. Thanks for replying.

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

You’ll need TestFlight, but I would recommend Memmy. I have on several occasions been using it and forgotten that I wasn’t on reddit

[–] balder1991 3 points 1 year ago

Biggest problem I have with Memmy so far is the lack of a collapse animation. That said, I think Mlem has a design I like better.

[–] jwigum 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m using liftoff! right now, and it seems pretty polished. Looking forward to it being out of TestFlight.

[–] moosh 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Any thoughts on it compared to Memmy?

EDIT: trying Liftoff! now too.

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

I think I tried to get into that one, but the Test flight was full. There are plenty out there (I’m typing this with wefwef), but I think Liftoff is still my favorite.

[–] moosh 1 points 1 year ago

I’m liking wefwef more. Liftoff has fallen into third place. Thunder is second. Memmy and wefwef tied for first. Mlem is definitely in last place since it doesn’t seem to be getting updates.

[–] moosh 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks, I figured it out!

Thanks! Just signed up to test it out.
