30 mins in and I’ve set up a Lemmy account, logged into Wefwef, added a bunch of subscriptions and now it’s about 85% like I’m still using Reddit. Amazing, and considerably better than I could have hoped for

Wefwef is great! I love the Apollo-export upload feature lets you find similar communities on Lemmy.

My biggest question is, will it eventually be an actual app?

The only thing missing for me after testing for 2 days is the swipe to go back a screen. You need to reach ALLLLLL the way across to the left edge of the screen and drag it ALLLLLL the way to the right to go back to your feed from a post. In Apollo I had it configured to only need a swipe from about the middle of the screen to the right edge. It’s very hard for me to reach that far comfortably and my muscle memory is all messed up right now. I keep doing the short swipe and I upvote someone’s post instead. If they can add this I will be extremely happy.

Edit: Also, I just realized after posting this comment that Apollo also had a feature where you go forward and backward a screen by swiping left or right on the bottom section. Extremely useful as well.

Pretty impressive! Not Apollo but close. Dismissing images is not as fluid.

I just installed Mlem and Memmy. Both have a very nice UI and are smooth. I am leaning towards Mlem though. I like swiping right to view my communities.

Edit: I was an Apollo user and reddit does not feel the same without Apollo.

The one complaint I have is the lack of a native app; it doesn't run as smoothly as the other Lemmy clients do on my phone.

It's already amazing on my tablet though!

It’s good, but it needs a compact view (unless I simply haven’t found the option).

Edit: It looks like compact view arrived in the appearance settings. Nice.

Edit 2: It might need since better post error handling/feedback…

It is. It doesn’t hide read posts, but that’s the only major thing it’s missing.

I just tied wefwef, and it’s brilliant! It really gives the Apollo feel and even allows for multiple accounts for different instances. Feels like coming home 🙂

Yes it is really nice but still browser based at the end of the day, therefore will not be a go-to for me.

Memmy has been good to me so far

I'm really digging Wefwef, but I'm an android user so I feel like I'm crossing some weird rubicon of using an Apple UI from a non Apple device.

I guess what I'm saying... Ladies... Is that I'm dangerous.

+1 wefwef.app my favorite so far

I love it. It’s good beehaw doesn’t allow downvoting though because I accidentally would be downvoting a lot as I try and swipe back

I'm happily using wefwef both on my phone and on my computer. It has a really a great UI to browse/keep up with lemmy.

It’s good, but it needs a compact view (unless I simply haven’t found the option).

I am trying it now for the first time on Android. But everytime I want to go back with the back button of the navbar, the app quits. Is that intended behavior?

For multilingual people. Please be aware that wefwef will fail upon posting comments, if you have selected more than 1 language in your Lemmy profile. Wefwef comes back with the error message that you need to select a language in your Lemmy profile.

It seems to work well enough. I could use a little more information density, I wish I could turn off thumbnails, and a bunch of other nit-pick-y things, but it's a good start.

Wow, can you link it?

Edit: I found it and wow it really is exactly like Apollo!

wefwef is the best, I really stopped caring about all the other apps being under development. Just mind that using it with Firefox really is absolutely lagging (which is kind of a shame) and that (currently) Chrome gets you the best performance. Feels like a native Android app.

It’s as if Apollo has been reborn. How wild! I recommend giving wefwef or Memmy a try.

For real, im shocked with how fluid this feels compared to everything else I have tried today. I get the occasional bad fetch for comments but thats about it so far

This is uncanny. Thanks!

As an Android user, wefwef is such a fantastically designed app. I was still using an old iPhone and iPad Pro to browse Reddit as a longtime Apollo Ultra user so the UI is just perfect for my tastes.

Thanks for the recommendation. This is excellent, and so far it works brilliantly for a a PWA.

I could kiss you OP. This is the best recommendation ever!

Oh, this is really nice. It'll be really cool once PWAs are usable on macOS and it'll become my go to way to access Lemmy.

It looks really nice, kind of funny seeing the iOS-UI on Android. But I loved Apollo before switching to Android.

So far my favourite is Memmy but I really like Wefwef too

I'm an Android user and I never used Apollo, but wefwef is just amazing. It works surprisingly well, especially for a PWA. It will be my app of choice at least until Sync for Lemmy is out.

Woah, wefwef is awesome! Using it now!
