      Sorry didn’t include a link since it’s on the app store. Thanks for providing one.

        Unfortunately, searching for apps in the app store is not easy. I tried searching for “memmy” and didn’t find it. I had to use the full name.

      Fantastic app, really puts Reddit to shame. Maybe if they didn’t spend all their efforts trying to add trackers and shit they would have a decent app

    OP you’re on an iPhone. Next time crop the photo in the Photos app to remove the ad for PUBG…

        Honestly it’s hard to tell. Even on my old iPhone X it’s pretty seamless. I wish Apple and Android would give PWA apps more feature support overall tbh.

          It’s definitely not as responsive and has a slightly laggy feel to it. I mean it looks and runs great for a webapp. But it just isn’t as good as a native app.

      There was a really annoying issue with wefwef for me - Swiping back to the Home Screen would result in a brief couple seconds of lag before I could scroll again. Apart from that I’d agree that is was great.

      But this Memmy app is a lot better in that regard 👌

      I bounce back and forth between WefWef and Memmy and I think they are both great in their own way.

      Wefwef feels like Apollo in a stable beta version: it doesn’t have everything I’m used to (blocking communities from the main feed is a big one) but everything is in the right place. Pity I only got it after Apollo went down, since I can’t get my data from Apollo now.

      I’m just trying Lemmy (writing this comment on it) and it’s still rather light but thankfully speedier than on a browser.

      I figure I’ll bounce between them for a bit and see which one starts to gain more usage and features. But yes, it’s good that there are more options available.

        Quick question- what specifically were you looking to export from Apollo over to WefWef? I tried exporting the .json file from Apollo over to WefWef following the instructions and it basically was just a list of my subscribed communities and allowed me to search for similar communities on here (most of which were pretty niche and therefor not on here yet. Totally understandable.) Is there something else I’m missing?

          That’s what I was looking for, yeah. Part of it was that I was subscribed to language learning communities (and memes in the target language: the shared language of memes provides a lot of context!) which can be named a large variety of things, so I’d be back at square one and searching for things manually.

          It’s not the worst thing to be back to basics, because it forces me to explore and learn about the Fediverse, but there’s always going to be that nagging “did I get everything out of the old apartment” feeling as I drop off the key.

      Only reason I’m not on Wefwef anymore is because of the lack of haptics. Getting haptic feedback on votes and swipes is just too good, imo.

    For those unaware, you swipe to access voting/reply on comments, swipe from left to right on a comment to get to the up/down vote and swipe right to left to reply.

    On your inbox, you can mark replies “read” by far swiping right to left.

    You can also swipe to go back to your feed back swiping left to right starting from the edge of the post.

    Lastly you can access settings by clicking the “gear” icon in your profile screen (top right)

      Thank you! I wish the app made this clearer. But I’ll be referring to this comment until I develop some muscle memory.

      I love the WefWef app but hate every time I have to type that ridiculous name out. There’s absolutely zero chance I will ever say that horrible name aloud to people either.

      Apollo was an awesome name. WW, opposite.

    The dev did so much work in the last few weeks. It’s amazing how quickly this app became good.

      well it’s a React app (booo), so all the author (or anyone willing to make a PR) needs to do is update the build pipeline to compile an APK and create a GitHub release for it if they don’t want a Play Store presence.

    In case someone from Android wanders in looking for suggestions, I would highly recommend liftoff. I’ve been using it for a couple of days and it’s really fluid and responsive.

        Exactly. Considering the app in only a few weeks old at most, I’m surprised at how polished it is. It can only get better from here.

    Loving the app competition. Mlem is coming along really nice as well. I truly wish Lemmy takes over Reddit.
