Memmy with the Apollo-inspired Sunset theme has been giving me a nice same-but-different vibe. That said, if Christian enters the Lemmy arena I’d happily support him.
Try wefwef for a full scale Apollo experience
Yeah wefwef is the best look-a-like experience for Lemmy. like Apollo was for Reddit.
Wefwef is rebrand as voyager now FYI. Just saw it on my feed, in case anyone was confused like me.
I tried to find wefwef on appstore, no chance.
edit: Ah, I see it's a webapp which you store "as a shortcut" to safari. pleasant to hear, but too many steps and unorthodox for some people. Not all people would love to hear that instead of going to appstore and hitting "install" they would have to do 5-6 separate steps instead they've never done (including me, and Im a software engineer:P) And before that, you have to think that "hey, how do I put this on my homescreen again?" and either you hit settings intentionally or by mistake, or somebody has to tell you. Like ... too many steps between having the app on your menu/using it everyday and "installing" it.
5-6?
Versus AppStore:
I would think not having to authenticate to have it on their home screen would make people consider it safer.
What if we don’t want a web app though?
Most beta apps are full already Mlem and Memmy are coming out soon on the App Store.
i’m using memmy as well; it’s got some overtones of apollo; an amazing start - yea same lol
