Memmy for iOS is inspired by Christian and his work on Apollo.

Pretty sure that’d be Voyager (formerly wefwef). It’s already been adopted by lemmy.world under m.lemmy.world

No, Voyager/wefwef and Memmy are separate things

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Well yes. I’m actually using Memmy. But I guess I don’t see how it would be inspired by Apollo. Don’t get my wrong, the dev is doing amazing work and I think it’s the best Lemmy app right now, but Voyager is 100% Apollo’s clone.

This is true. Memmy is a great app but it's still not quite a clone of Apollo. Wefwef/Voyager is legitimately Apollo's UI, almost 1:1. It just doesn't have haptics 🙁

Also missing all those cool keyboard shortcuts. I’m sure it will get there tho.

Oh I see what you were saying, sorry I misunderstood your point. I didn’t use Apollo much (I liked Narwhal more) so I can’t speak on how similar they are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We are absolutely inspired by Apollo, much of the UI is very similar. We can take inspiration from Apollo without copying it 1 for 1. There’s no creative fun in just making a carbon copy of Apollo for us.

Huh, TIL. Maybe that’s why I prefer it over the other options out there, because it’s got a somewhat familiar layout and feel. Keep up the good work!
