That’s subjective. Wefwef is trying to clone Apollo for Reddit. It’s cross platform since it’s a PWA. Memmy is iOS only and seems to have more settings right now. If you’re used to Apollo give wefwef a shot!

Memmy is a React/Expo app so it's cross platform as well, the dev just hasn't configured an Android build pipeline for it. Both have the same janky scrolling issues which is common across React apps.

Very true, hopefully Memmy exports to Android soon! Ps: your username made me think I found a bug to fix in our inbox code lol!

Wefwef is trying to clone Apollo for Reddit.

Well the first sentence of memmys github description says that it's "an Apollo-inspired iOS and Android client" so I'd say they're doing the same^^

Key difference in what i said: as of now, wefwef is more of a CLONE of Apollo. Everything is almost the same. Memmy is heavily inspired by, but looks and behaves differently in some ways. My opinion is wefwef looks more like a native iOS app. Neither is bad, and maybe I’m biased as I’m contributing to wefwef, but it’s all preference anyways :)
