I’m not sure if you’ve tried this PWA called Wefwef but it feels like a fully featured Apollo client for Lemmy already. You just go to the site and add it to your home screen. No beta to sign up for. No TestFlight link. Just add the PWA.
It’s good. It’s really really good.
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.
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.
This is uncanny. Thanks!
This is going to be my go to app for mobile devices, thanks for making me aware of it!
Posting from it now, it’s fantastic!
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?
No it isn’t. Works as intended for me on both Firefox and Brave.
Since an update this morning it is working fine.
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.
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
@fades @African_Grey do you know if any more beta slots have been upened up for Memmy? I’m trialing Mlem right now but there’s no iPad version
It looks really nice, kind of funny seeing the iOS-UI on Android. But I loved Apollo before switching to Android.
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.
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
We should charge for API use now. :)
totally! lets also block the mobile sites so we can only access it through an ad and crypto infested app 🤭
New favorite way to use lemmy.
Great design, feels responsive, works everywhere…
PWAs are great, and for 99% of use cases are more than enough. We need a fake App Store that “installs” PWAs in people devices in a transparent way.
Also let’s hope Apple is forced to open iOS to alternative rendering engines and complete full features browsers.
And for a final irony boost, the PWA thing is the “”””original”””” vision for smartphones, at least according to Steve Jobs during the original iPhone keynote. Full circle and stuff.
Yup, that’s Apollo in a web browser.
Omg I just checked out wefwef. I hope they release a downloadable app soon. The UI is fantastic.
My biggest question is, will it eventually be an actual app?
I honestly think that it doesn’t matter - this PWA is so polished I’m forgetting that I’m not using a native app.
