      And the developer is going an awesome job. It’s early but it’s really promising.

      Memmy is easily a 9/10 already, just missing some features.

      Been absolutely loving the Dracula (purple) theme!!

        I loath the font size of the subjects of posts in my feed. It’s the opposite of sleek. Huge and bold regardless of anything I toggle. I can’t find a way to change it and it puts me off. Al my font sizes are set to small, and the feed is compact, so seeing it huge and bold is just off putting.

        I’ve kept with WefWef/Voyager for that reason alone. I come back to see if try here are more options, but it hasn’t happened.

        Otherwise it seems great.

            Notice the gap in disparity between my name at the top, the font in the bottom row and the posts. I get it won’t all be the same, but I also tried to show a post with not aton of text being in 5 rows.

            Now compare to Voyager the same-ish posts…

            To me, it’s much cleaner and closer to my system font size. Not the end of the world, but when just scrolling through posts irks me, I look for alternatives. Though I did find a few other things I liked while figuring out how to reply and post images.

            At the end of the day, I’m reasonable. People like what they like and tend to stick to that. I found WefWef/Voyager fist and it felt and looked like Apollo (font size and all). Then I found Memmy, so that might also play into it.

          Hey I’m one of the developers of Memmy. Do you have any settings changed for font size in your iOS settings? That’s definitely not what it looks like for most users

              Weird. If you care enough to join our discord i can try to help troubleshoot. Don’t know what would be causing that but like i said, im not aware of it being an issue for anyone else

                So I was able to fix it after I realized font size changes require a refresh of posts. Disabling use system font size and the refreshing the posts solved the font size issue. I appreciate the invite to Discord, but life gets in the way.

                  No worries, yea some of our memoization needs a little more work for appearance changes at the moment. I’m glad you got it working better!

        Once I get the equivalent to the new comment highlightinator (displays how comments are new since the last time you click the post) and customizable swipe gestures I will be very happy

            Oh it was navigation gestures. Using the bottom bar to swip back and forth. I would sometimes try to upvote a comment or something and back out of the post being able to swipe forward wasn’t needed but nice to have since my thumb was already down there

      Pretty sure that’d be Voyager (formerly wefwef). It’s already been adopted by lemmy.world under m.lemmy.world

          Well yes. I’m actually using Memmy. But I guess I don’t see how it would be inspired by Apollo. Don’t get my wrong, the dev is doing amazing work and I think it’s the best Lemmy app right now, but Voyager is 100% Apollo’s clone.

            This is true. Memmy is a great app but it’s still not quite a clone of Apollo. Wefwef/Voyager is legitimately Apollo’s UI, almost 1:1. It just doesn’t have haptics 🙁

            Oh I see what you were saying, sorry I misunderstood your point. I didn’t use Apollo much (I liked Narwhal more) so I can’t speak on how similar they are.

            We are absolutely inspired by Apollo, much of the UI is very similar. We can take inspiration from Apollo without copying it 1 for 1. There’s no creative fun in just making a carbon copy of Apollo for us.

              Huh, TIL. Maybe that’s why I prefer it over the other options out there, because it’s got a somewhat familiar layout and feel. Keep up the good work!

      Until Memmy can do a compact mode like Apollo it’s useless to me. That’s why I’m on wefwef/Voyager.

      EDIT: I was wrong, and looking in the wrong place for the setting.

    after using wef wef I think we are ready for web based apps. we shouldn’t be in walled garden. i didn’t know web apps can be this smooth.

    I wanna see RIF for lemmy but I’m actually pretty satisfied with liftoff so far. It needs some more optimization but when it’s working quickly it’s a pleasure to use.

    Memmy and Voyager are both amazing and reminiscent of Apollo. I pretty much switch back and forth between the two because I can’t decide which one I like better. Voyager, being a PWA, has this annoying stutter sometimes with scrolling on iOS. But other than that I think Christian should be proud that his app inspired so many others to model after.

    Yea but didn’t he say he’s not interested at this time? I think he just wants to chill for a bit and made enough off Apollo he can do so

      I by no means mean to put any pressure on Christian or anything. Just hopeful! He should take all the time he needs.
