It has a really nice UI.

It is listed under web apps in this thread: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
This is honestly amazing and I cannot believe this hasn’t blown up yet. It is so close to the Apollo experience that I now have zero reason to stay on Reddit.
As a total noob, I wasn’t able to install it from github. (Which might be the reason for the app not blowing up.) Any advice for dummies?
I don’t think you install anything, it’s a website. Try using this link: https://wefwef.app/posts/lemmy.world/all
It’s incredibly fast as well. Beautiful UI
Been using it today and so far so good. Looking forward to improvements with the commenting UI and some more sort options like Top Day from the ‘official’ Lemmy web client.
Edit: would be good to be able to edit stuff too.
Thank you! I just tried it and my Lemmy experience is so much better.
Yep its really impressive for such an early project.
Having said that I can’t work out how to edit comments/posts I have made.
It would also be nice to have a preview of your comment too.
Hopefully they add that at some point.
Currently using this. The experience is quite smooth so far despite not loading posts at times. Seems to be a good alternative to browsing lemmy through Safari.
Arrived here from r/apolloapp and I’m pleasantly surprised! Perfect timing. I will miss Apollo as it shuts down tomorrow. Here’s hoping we have some good communities on Lemmy.
Haven’t figured out why I can’t search nsfw communities. For science of course
My errr… friend, was also asking about this.
Yeah wefwef is the best right now for Apollo fans. If they can jerry rig the auto-marking-as-read as you scroll past posts, that will be great.
Check out liftoff, I use it over jerboa. With the right settings it feels like I’m using rif again
Thanks for this suggestion, I just started using it and it seems great far
Also by far my favorite client. Just wish I could make the text bigger for my aging eyes…
You can! Just to to Settings - Appearance
Ooooh, wasn’t there last time I looked, thanks !
This is incredible. But UI is ios inspired. Seems out of place in Android.
Yes, very disorienting
How do you get it on Android?
It’s web-based, so you log into the site with your Lemmy credentials then click the menu button in your web browser and hit install. Info at https://wefwef.app/settings/install

This is one of the reasons to stick with open source apps! The code is right there. If there is a security issue, the community will most likely notice and fix it.
Careful, though, the heartbleed bug existed in the OpenSSL library for two years before it was found out and fixed.
