Would be nice to have a few iOS-only apps that are designed entirely around Apple’s UX, like Apollo. Please Christian, don’t leave us…

[–] BioDriver 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Mlem is very Apollo reminiscent

[–] Dark_Blade 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah I’ve used it, and it’s good. The text editor is better on Memmy though, more like Apollo. Search too.

[–] quinten 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Try wefwef.app in Safari and add it to your homescreen!

[–] Dark_Blade 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I tried it, and it worked fine…but I’d still prefer a native app from an amazing dev, y’know? Christian added so much to the Apollo app…sad to see it all go to waste.

[–] quinten 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Totally agree. I prefer a native app too. But hey, its something.

[–] Dark_Blade 1 points 2 years ago

Agreed, something’s always better than nothing.

[–] waatchaa 2 points 2 years ago

This website is really cool! Thanks for the link

Artemis is taking large inspiration from Apollo, while still being unique so it's not an exact clone. The magazine is /m/ArtemisApp!

[–] Dark_Blade 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve heard of it, just waiting for betas to open up a bit. Even then, however, the fact that it’s cross-platform means it’ll probably not be perfectly in-line with Apple’s HIG. Apollo almost feels like Apple designed it, which is part of why I enjoy it so much.

[–] Q320 13 points 2 years ago (5 children)

I'm working on mine too (iOS)

Missing a few key features for now, but hopefully, I'll be able to Testflight+OpenSource by the end of next week.

Thanks for this!

I believe Memmy is also planning on supporting Android soon if it doesn’t already. I’ve been super impressed with it so far!

I'm really liking Thunder and Liftoff. Having a hard time choosing between the two.

[–] KosmosMonk 1 points 2 years ago

Same! I prefer compact view in Thunder, but it lacks the automatic dark theme switch, and an option to change overall colour (I can't stand that much purple!)

[–] tamtt 6 points 2 years ago

Of the play store apps I think connect is the best one so far. Very customisable.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

That's a lot of cross-posted

[–] Ximo 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm happy to see Slide make a lemmy client, it's the client I use until a greedy CEO to the core thought with his wallet

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

He isn't greedy. If he were greedy, he'd have figured out a way to keep way more money. The truth is, he is incompetent. Over half a billion dollars in revenue, for a company who's only product is a website that costs a few hundred grand a year to run, and he can't figure out in over a decade how to make money from this.

[–] Ximo 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, you are rigth, he is truly an incompetent.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It doesn't look like this Slide is built by the same dev. It's just inspired by Slide for Reddit.

[–] Nando 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Right now the best is Mlem for me.

[–] Elcapitan786 1 points 2 years ago

Mlem is let down by the scrolling, way smoother on Memmy and Liftoff that i am also testing.

Mlem has the best font size though

[–] alejandro 4 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Sucks that all of the iOS apps require getting an invite to TestFlight, including joining some discord server to ask for it. It doesn’t help that Lemmy on mobile Safari sucks, so being an iOS user on Lemmy requires either a lot of patience or a high level of commitment.

It’s nice that there are a lot being worked on, but I feel like whichever hits the appstore first will win.

[–] hideyoshi 9 points 2 years ago

Getting into the beta for Memmy is about as easy as it gets. Just download TestFlight and click on the invite link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD

[–] KuroJ 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You can join just by clicking the TestFlight link as long as the beta isn’t full. Here’s all the ones available for iOS currently.

https://testflight.apple.com/join/9n8xrqvH https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD https://testflight.apple.com/join/MelFP11Y https://testflight.apple.com/join/e6ZEbxuR

I also just tried the wefwef mobile and it works perfectly.

Honestly you can’t really go wrong with any of those options as a iOS user

[–] rtxn 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lemmy on mobile Safari sucks

Have you tried wefwef.app? I've only looked at it, but it seems like a pretty lightweight handheld-first web interface.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Love wefwef - started using it 2 days ago and so far used it exclusively since. Was using Memmy & Mlem before that and they’re good. Wefwef - what’s up with that name though?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

via Slemmy readme

Why Tailwind?

No good reason. Initially I wanted to try out a seemingly-good CSS framework. It turned out to be awful, and so did Tailwind.

My advice? Never use Tailwind. It's a waste of time.

Lulz

[–] gravityslave 3 points 2 years ago

Does anyone know if there is a browser extension like RES (Reddit Enhancement Suite)? I really used the navigation bar with the ability to group communities.

[–] oct_opus 2 points 2 years ago

I'm using Liftoff on IOS and it works great

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Are apps site-exclusive or federated as well? Will I be able to use a Lemmy app with a kbin account?

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

Artemis is being built with both kbin and Lemmy support! The magazine is /m/ArtemisApp.

Memmy looks good, thanks. (Better than Mlem imho)

[–] Mautobu 2 points 2 years ago

This is incredibly helpful. Thank you.

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

The new TestFlight link for Liftoff is now available (they switched developer account so new versions need this link)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I don't know what my problem is but liftoff isn't showing up in my android play store. I'm trying Connect instead.
NM went to git and got the link from there
