A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Give wefwef a try. It’s a third party PWA app already looking very similar to Apollo.
hi, do you think you could walk me through how to download something like this or point me in the direction of a guide or something that could? i’ve been using lemmy just on browser but would be interested in something like this, i’ve just never installed anything like it before and don’t quite know what to do :) thanks!
Open https://wefwef.app in your mobile browser, open the share slid out menu or however that menu is called and click on "add to home screen". That's it.
One thing to be aware of is that it should probably be done with the original system browser, so Safari on iOS and Chrome / Samsung Internet on Android. At least I didn't seem to get the option to add to home screen from Firefox on Android, and I'm also not sure every iOS browser will have add to home screen in the share sheet.
There's an "Install" button in Firefox in the menu.
OK, thanks. Guess I must have overlooked it when I searched for it (because I started in Firefox). I still think it's worth to be aware of in case people use some really specialized browsers with certain limitations.
