Thanks!

Looks like for iOS this is still in beta, so you will need to install “testflight” from the appstore (allows to install beta apps) and then go to https://testflight.apple.com/join/xQfmkJhc on your iphone/ipads browser and accept the invite link. Then you can install mlem, start it and log in (dont forget to type in the address of your instance at the top)

Typing this from mlem and the experience is incredible and very Apollo-like. And this is a pre-release version – great work by the dev.

I’m using mlem and it mostly works fine, though it is pretty early access still and has its quirks

This echoes my Jerboa experience.

These are still early days.

Just installed it, thanks for the recommendation. I like its interface so far, I might use this instead of Mlem.

There’s Jerboa, which is pretty good. I’m still getting used to it’s functionality.

I haven’t figured out how to subscribe to new communities on Jerboa. I keep having to go back into the web browser to do it.

If you are on this post : click on the name of the community at the top (above the post title). Then the community opens and you can click “subscribe”. In some communities you need to be approved, then you see “pending”.

Right, sorry, I was misremembering my issue. There’s no search bar on Jerboa, so I can’t find new communities through the app unless they happen to pop up on All.

Do you get the bug that messes with your cursor if you try to move it and then write? Or the backspace issue?

Highlighting text is a pain. I’ve realized you can’t tap or swipe the cursor to select more. You can only swipe over text and hope you got it all. This is still an alpha build in active development though.

The bugs I’m talking about are unmistakingly a backspace bug and a cursor bug. I would blame my phone then, but I’ve had it on different phones with different keyboard apps. Oh well, thankfully the webapp straight from an instance is great as well.

Scrolling feels really janky

I’m pretty new to this corner of the world so if this is a reused joke then whatever. But I thought this was fucking hilarious.

Memmy feels like it could be a spiritual successor to Apollo.

The only things I’m really missing right now is the compact post size and tap to collapse.

Hopefully we get that in time.
