I’ve added it to my Home Screen and to be honest I can barely tell it’s not a native app. It’s shockingly well put together so far.

    the native site added as an app isn't half bad either, it works in a very similar way but it just has some UI niggles

    Until I realized that there’s no haptic feedback.

    It’s still the greatest alternative out there because it’s very similar to Apollo and not just “inspired by”. I don’t even know if haptic feedback is possible on PWA but I guess time will tell.

    Yep, probably the second best pwa I’ve used

    I’ve been using Memmy for iOS. It’s amazing with constant updates. Need to get it installed via TestFlight, but the developer has submitted it to the App Store as well so hopefully it will be broadly available.

    Edit: missed the part about pwa, but this is a native mobile app.

    Same, that’s what I’ve been doing and it really just feels like using Apollo again.

    Edit: once I’m able to save posts to my profile, long press to download, and organize groups of communities it will be indistinguishable (for me anyway, a mostly-lurker)
