Crazy to see how quickly a handful of talented developers have managed to build several feature-rich Lemmy apps in such a short amount of time. Really drives home the point that the reddit's official app—with it's 80 person dev team—must just suck on purpose.

[-] EliasChao@lemmy.one 7 points 3 years ago

It’s not really the devs that are to blame, but the management team.

[-] gooddaytodayhere@vlemmy.net 27 points 3 years ago

I’m on wefwef as an Apollo replacement. Enjoying it!

[-] Pandantic@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

They even now have a part where you can export your Apollo JSON data to look for subreddits like the ones you followed. I unsubscribed from all my subreddits, but good for others.

[-] reply2075@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago

Yeah, wish I had seen that prior to nuking my Reddit account and Apollo install from orbit. Oh well, get to just rediscover everything organically now

[-] cornbread@lemm.ee 2 points 3 years ago

Apollo locked everyone out after the API changes anyway so there was no way to export as of yesterday.

[-] Lotsen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 years ago

Set your clock back to a date before the 30

Memmy is winning so far for me.

[-] LazaroFilm@lemmy.world 17 points 3 years ago

Try WefWef. Really impressive for a lightweight webapp. It behaves like. Real app once installed on your home page.

[-] EliasChao@lemmy.one 7 points 3 years ago

I really like wefwef visually, but the scrolling on the homepage is a bit too buggy tbh.

Same here of the few I’ve tried. Mlem is cool too.

[-] ebits21@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago

Same. Pace of development is impressive. 6 updates in the last 24 hours! And they’re noticeable improvements.

Rexxit. Love it!

[-] Aervalynn@lemmy.world 11 points 3 years ago

A+ folder name

Personally, I'm waitin for the Lemmy version of Sync to come out, but good luck in your search

[-] Bautznersenf@feddit.de 10 points 3 years ago

I don't see the point of squabbles. It's just going to turn into reddit if it catches on. The fediverse at least has decentralization built in and is more flexible if someone becomes a jerk.

[-] CaffeinatedNerd@lemmy.world 8 points 3 years ago

There are people that prefers a more straightforward reddit alternative, and Squabbles has been the most promising candidate so far. Not all wants to learn how all these fediverse stuff works.

Personally, I prefer Lemmy than Squabbles but it doesn’t hurt to contribute to more than 1 alternative to that shithole of a site.

[-] zahel@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

yeah even their privacy policy already references an eventual buyout/acquisition so it's all gonna come down to profit driven motives eventually

[-] ElDuderino96@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago

Thanks to this thread, I discovered wefwef. It’s amazing what people can create in such a short amount of time! I legit feel like I’m using Apollo again.

Currently trying LiftOff via testflight and it’s not bad… given the state of development. I must say I do also enjoy this “dev” state after Rexxit. Thanks for the screenshot. Looks like I have some other apps to try as well.

[-] sublemon@lemm.ee 7 points 3 years ago

Any Lemmy apps that remember your comment sort option? I vastly prefer "Top" to "Hot", but neither Jerboa nor Wefwef seem to have a way to change the default.

[-] knowledgephoenix@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

As of like a day ago, Memmy lets you change the sort order for comments. There’s no way to set the default yet, but I’m sure that will come at some point.

[-] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 7 points 3 years ago

Which is the best one in your opinion?

[-] radiated@lemmy.world 17 points 3 years ago

Not OP, but currently using WefWef, and imo it feels the best!

[-] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 5 points 3 years ago

It’s like Apollo right? But I feel that sometimes it stutters. Or maybe just just lemmy

[-] gooddaytodayhere@vlemmy.net 4 points 3 years ago

I’m on wefwef and yeah it stutters a bit but I it feels similar to early Reddit instability vibes, it’s not annoying me much

[-] Zeractle@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 years ago

The creator has also updated it constantly the last few days and it has gotten much better so far

I am using liftoff and loving it so far .

[-] ArmDeepInPain@lemmy.world 5 points 3 years ago

Im testing out Wefwef, Calipso, and Pulse. So far wefwef is the best and looks pretty similar to Apollo

[-] Kerandir@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago

Me too! And for squabbles I’m using their site and Pulse, Calisto just doesn’t appeal to me for now.

Heh, that folder name gave me a good chuckle.

Memmy feels great to use so far. Their speed of development is amazing.

[-] Maeric@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago

Mine looks similar, though I haven’t got any squabbles. Gotta try a bunch and see what sticks! Two favourite apps at the moment are Memmy and Liftoff

[-] MisterMoo@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago

How come when I search for these in the App Store nothing comes up? Are they early access only?

[-] mingistech@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago

Everything with a yellow dot to the left of the name is a beta. You’ll need to use TestFlight to access them.

Get TestFlight from the App Store

[-] G_Wash1776@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

Rexxit 😂😂😂

[-] randomaccount43543@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago
[-] acetuk@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

Nice. What is the Lemmy app?

[-] pagshile@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago

That looks like the Lemmy.world web page homepage bookmark.

I’m liking Memmy best so far I think. WefWef does look so much like Apollo but it’s missing a few things, saved posts for one.

[-] Casmael@geddit.social 3 points 3 years ago

Yeah +1 for Memmy. Really impressed with how far it’s evolved in such a short time. I personally can’t imagine ever getting that amount of work done tbh.

[-] Duvidl@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago

Give connect for lemmy a shot. Almost everything RIF had is there, too.

[-] CaffeinatedNerd@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago)

Is this available for iOS, too? I’d like to try it out as well

Edit: a word

How did you get the actual lemmy.world app? I’m using liftoff for limmy.world, unless I’m doing something wrong and I’m sure I am. Lol
