Goodnight Apollo, my sweet prince.
Hello Memmy 🫡
You may have already seen this, but there is a web app for Lemmy that looks and functions very similar to Apollo:
I’ve been trying it today, and it’s pretty good.
WTF! i been on lemmy for 2 weeks and this is my first time seeing this! Thanks
e: This is friggin amazing!
No prob, fam!
I'm just curious; why is it a web app and not something you can download? The black bar in the bottom of the screen makes it feel weird, also the fact that upvote/downvote colors are reversed. Other than that, it soothens my withdrawals from Apollo, and I think I'll be using it a fair amount alongside Memmy (which feels nice, it's not a 100% carbon copy, but familiar)
Click the share button and save it your home screen it’ll save and operate as an app. It’s a web app just a new build option that makes it easier for something to be accessible in multiple ways.
It's insane because the dev has only been working on this for three weeks. And it's the best progressive web app I've ever seen. Almost feels native on my iPhone other than the lack of haptic feedback.
Damn... I hadn't been paying attention and thought that was actually exclusively an iOS app when I'd seen it mentioned before... Looks interesting.
Nah, it’s for everyone.
And if you save it to your Home Screen as an app it feels really good to use.
Yes... This is what I learned and the reason for my comment. It looks very interesting as I said. Not bad at all.
You can use it oN Android and feels ilegal, but ilegally awesome.
Holy shit, the developer has put some serious work in. I didn’t know web apps could be that good. There’s some insane attention to detail going on here
The animations when navigating are great
Wow! It really does feel very similar to Apollo. It will undoubtedly make the transition easier.
Thanks!
🙏
Check out Memmy if you haven’t already. It’s the best IOS Lemmy app I’ve tried by far, and really reminds me of Apollo.
This web app is really nice too though. It’s cool that we’re getting such good options.
+1
Incredible, and the dev keeps updating it like twice a day.
I'm also running a copy alongside my instance, thelemmy.club at app.thelemmy.club
I never was really fond of web apps but this is great.
Damn, that looks just like Apollo!
That's the idea, but better because Fediverse>Reddit.
Wefwef feels like home. I was using Apollo for years and this feels very natural
The dev is constantly updating it and is super communicative. Heres a link to the community
Oh nice! Subscribed.
Wow, thanks for this.
If only this was a native ios app 😭
It’s preeeettty close if you save it to your desktop. There’s obviously still work to do, but the dev making lots of updates all the time.
I’m currently using this exactly like I was using Apollo. I have it as a window in Stage Manager on my iPad off to the side while I do work. It’s great.
I said this in another comment, but check out Memmy if you haven’t already! It’s the best I’ve used so far and totally reminds me of Apollo.
Holy shit how is a PWA this good
Right?
This might actually be the most app-like PWA I’ve used so far.
Didn't the Apollo developer say that he was planning on porting his app to the fediverse?
No, some other apps have
Voyager now.. i know this thread us really old.
