What I said in the title. This is the first Lemmy app that gives me Apollo vibes when I use it. The new themes are just chef’s kiss. Phenomenal work! It’s not Apollo yet, but this is the app that gets me thinking that Lemmy could be a long term thing for me. Well done!!

Agreed! Thanks to all who are putting in the work to build this for us.

I never used Appolo, but I did use a bunch of Lemmy apps for iOS over the past couple of weeks. There are some seriously well-crafted ones but they are missing some key features; and some pretty comprehensive ones that were clearly put together a bit fast. Which is very fine, the community is exploding now, and app efforts have prioritized either quality or feature coverage first. Once they all move further along, I can see how they all have potential to be really solid.

But I think Memmy here is the only one at this point in time that has both solid coverage and solid quality. Of course there are still things to be done, but it’s already very very usable, and for basically everything an end user would want to do day-to-day, I think. The progress here is really impressive. 👏👏👏

Yep agreed! Once they add post editing and a text size slider Memmy will be exactly the way I want it

Hoping to get OLED black mode and top hour, 6 hours, and 12 hours soon. Looking great so far.

Yes, excellent app so far. I would gladly pay for it.

My only wishes so far are the option to swipe to a subscription list (instead of clicking the star) and a full screen swipe. Apollo offered this by disabling upvote and downvote button swipes…it’s so much easier to do on bigger phones and a great “comfortable” feature for an app to feel convenient and intuitive to use.

Rather than a full screen swipe I would appreciate the ability to swipe on the bottom nav bar. Apollo had that option. Ideally a setting for both options would be best!
