Any replies welcome, but I’m primarily in search of a new iOS client. I heard Raccoon is similar but last I checked it was Android only.
Just wanted to comment, this isn’t a Voyager issue breaking compatibility with Beehaw. They have given us a lot of warning and efforts at keeping backwards compatibility. This was Beehaws decision to not upgrade Lemmy to a version that Voyager supports.
Voyager did what now?
Voyager doesn’t support Lemmy 18.x anymore, and Beehaw is getting ready to leave Lemmy so won’t upgrade servers beyond 18.
The “solution” is Native version of Voyager (download an older version), but that means no more upgrades.
I haven’t been really active on Beehaw for a while now. Where can I read more about Beehaw leaving Lemmy?
anything of importance is generally going to be mirrored on the Docs page, so for example: Beehaw, Lemmy, and A Vision of the Fediverse
I tried to look on their home page and didn’t see any stickied post about that, nothing on their mastodon recently seems to say anything about it, I’d feel a little awkward joining their discord just to spy about it since I’m not actually a Beehaw member, I’m on Kbin, I just enjoy their posts and community, I would also be very interested to know if they’re confirmed moving shop.
Yeah this was news to me too.
Having said that though, I created an account on lemmy.ml at first and the attitudes there are weird. I think the description of “tankies” is pretty accurate. I don’t like extreme-anything whether it’s left or right. And because this is the main platform of the Lemmy devs I can see how this ends up permeating a lot of the discussions.
As a die-hard Voyager user (until now, that is), I think you’ll be very happy with Raccoon.
I didn’t expect to find anything that could replace Voyager, and have been pleasantly surprised so far 👍
EDIT: Android only, AFAIK, sorry.
But does it work on iOS? I looked through the page again and don’t see any mention of it
I used that for a while, but the development seems to have ground to a halt while bugs and missing features mount.
Too bad, because I really liked it.
I’ve been using Arctic on iOS for the last few days. I like it well enough, though based on the post elsewhere in this thread I’ll probably migrate back to Voyager once beehaw migrates to whatever they’re moving to.
