    You may have already seen this, but there is a web app for Lemmy that looks and functions very similar to Apollo:

    https://wefwef.app/

    I’ve been trying it today, and it’s pretty good.

          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.

      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

      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.

      Wow! It really does feel very similar to Apollo. It will undoubtedly make the transition easier.

      Thanks!

      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.

      Wefwef feels like home. I was using Apollo for years and this feels very natural

        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.
