    For those unaware, you swipe to access voting/reply on comments, swipe from left to right on a comment to get to the up/down vote and swipe right to left to reply.

    On your inbox, you can mark replies “read” by far swiping right to left.

    You can also swipe to go back to your feed back swiping left to right starting from the edge of the post.

    Lastly you can access settings by clicking the “gear” icon in your profile screen (top right)

    It’s good for reviewing and giving high marks for searchability, but right now I’m having a better time with the beta version due to the absolutely insane rate of progress the dev makes every day.

    Having lots of errors signing into various accounts when I was trying to find what server to call home… got my lemmy.world account and beehaw to work, but no luck with kbin.social…

    Other than that, works pretty well. Obviously a long way off the gloriousness of Apollo, but not so far off that I’d rather stick with a web shortcut. Seeing a lot of image previews turned into 🔗 instead of showing thumbs, and so many sites now rejecting access due to the use of a VPN… but that’s more a web problem than a Memmy prob I suppose.

    Feature-request-wise, it would also be nice to see a more customizable feed that could hook into any combination of my various accounts with a tier-style prioritization on which account to load a subscription when a particular subscription exists across those accounts.

    Exciting times either way!

      kbin is federated with lemmy (and mastadon) but it is actually its own software with its own (unfinished) API.

      There was a really annoying issue with wefwef for me - Swiping back to the Home Screen would result in a brief couple seconds of lag before I could scroll again. Apart from that I’d agree that is was great.

      But this Memmy app is a lot better in that regard 👌

      Try: Jerboa, Liftoff, Connect, Summit, Thunder, wefwef, etc.

      Sync is coming next month too.

          Lemmotif is also looking good but is newer and less feature rich last I checked. There’s probably a couple newer ones that’s I’m forgetting.

          Oh, Artemis is coming soon and also supports kbin which is rare as their api isn’t finished yet.

        It’s been announced that it’s coming, but it’s not released yet. I’m not sure if there’s an expected release date

      We’ve got a bajillion of them, and unlike iOS, you didn’t need to wait for it to hit the Apple Store.

    Im excited about all the apps but to be honest i hate the names of most of them. Mlem, wefwef, memmy. Idk the overly cute name makes me think of dudes who owo in people’s DMs

      Lol I started using liftoff on android for that exact reason. Idk what’s so appealing about baby talk for app devs that they name stuff like that

        Imagine being so insecure that you won’t use an app because the name isn’t manly enough. (Although to be fair i am also using liftoff atm because it was the open source app that worked the best last time I tried them all)

      That’s subjective. Wefwef is trying to clone Apollo for Reddit. It’s cross platform since it’s a PWA. Memmy is iOS only and seems to have more settings right now. If you’re used to Apollo give wefwef a shot!

        Wefwef is trying to clone Apollo for Reddit.

        Well the first sentence of memmys github description says that it’s “an Apollo-inspired iOS and Android client” so I’d say they’re doing the same^^

          Key difference in what i said: as of now, wefwef is more of a CLONE of Apollo. Everything is almost the same. Memmy is heavily inspired by, but looks and behaves differently in some ways. My opinion is wefwef looks more like a native iOS app. Neither is bad, and maybe I’m biased as I’m contributing to wefwef, but it’s all preference anyways :)

        Memmy is a React/Expo app so it’s cross platform as well, the dev just hasn’t configured an Android build pipeline for it. Both have the same janky scrolling issues which is common across React apps.
