Man, the astroturfing for wefwef around here is insane. I keep seeing it get brought up even in completely unrelated threads!

Apollo had a huge loyal customer base.

Wefwef provides an almost perfectly cloned UI and is a mere WebApp.

For this reason a lot of users are so impressed with it that they are evangelising it.

The big problem with it that it requires users to submit their login credentials, which is a bit of a security issue.
