It requires minimum IOS 15 unfortunately.
Lemmy is going to upgrade to V1.0.0 in the near future, which will break compatibility. You will have issues unless either way.
Get a new Ipad. On android you can run web apps even on outdated androidOS version thanks to its updatable core software approach.
Maybe Voyager's web app?
Yup, but as mentioned in my post, I was hoping for a hard client specifically. Either way, I tried wefwef.app and unfortunately it doesn’t load on safari or firefox. Damn my ipad is old.
Oh duh, you did say that. The only other thing I could think of is going to the way back machine and getting one of the earlier apps like Mlem or Memmy, or message one of the app's developers for a version that is compatible.
The dev for Arctic has been pretty responsive and may be willing to help you out.

Unfortunately, this is unlikely to work because lemm.ee is using a much newer Lemmy version than such versions would be designed for. Newer Lemmy versions introduced breaking changes that caused many older clients to stop working.
Tthe oldest iOS version that the oldest version of Mlem supports is iOS 16, and for Memmy I seem to remember that it's iOS 13 (though I can't find a reference to that right now). So I don't think either would be viable for OP. Arctic currently supports iOS 15 and later; I'm not familiar with whether it supported older versions in the past.
