Hi there! So there's been a ton of work by a bunch of developers that are really frustrated with Apollo going away end of month.

That's why I created (yet another) Apollo-like Lemmy client called wefwef - https://wefwef.app.

Right now it's targetting iOS - you can still use it on Android phones, but it's untested. An Android theme is in the works!

So, why wefwef?

  • Progressive web app — It's easy to try, and works cross platform. Get the same experience on your phone, tablet and computer. If you like it, add to home screen for a like-native experience.
  • Open source! Self hosting and hacking is totally doable

There's a TON of work to be done, but the basics are there (browsing, commenting and voting). More to come soon! Let me know what you think.

Have you considered adding kbin accessibility? That would be great!

Thanks for the amazing work. Is it possible to sort posts by "top"?

I just added this wen app on a suggestion and it's fantastic! Definitely the best I've used so far over the past few weeks, really improves the Lemmy experience.

This is looking good!

Are you planning to support Android officially as well? Is it in the plans, still in discussion, or just a happy convenience that you are not specifically planning to keep?

Does the save button is working for you?

Would it be possible to modify the sorting feature so that it isn’t universal? In Apollo, unless I’m misremembering, I’m fairly certain the sorting would default back to a set sorting function, usually Hot or whatever the equivalent was. It might’ve been a setting called default sorting method, again my memory is hazy and I can’t exactly go check. I digress. This was convenient bc oftentimes when someone sorts by Top, Active, or Controversial it is only for the given instance they’re currently viewing, and they intend on viewing a specific sorting method generally while otherwise browsing. It would be nice as at least an option, if possible to implement easily.

Why the shitty name? Any chance ya'll can change it when it comes out of alpha?
