Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝

Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Rest in Power RiF. Time to figure out Lemmy

[–] silas 48 points 2 years ago (3 children)

There’s a ton of awesome apps in development, it’s only gonna get better! Here’s a sneak peek of one I’m working on:

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

UI looks good, looking forward to it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Nice! It’s exciting having so many options coming our way.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That looks tidy AF, looking forward to it. Is it Android/iOS/cross platform?

[–] silas 3 points 2 years ago

It’ll be starting out as a web app, and then I’ll be releasing it on iOS/Android when the web app is stable.

The main goal with this project is to create a friendly, high-quality, public-facing website that aggregates all Lemmy instances, posts, communities, etc. so that Google and other search engines will be able to index the content easily. It’ll also make Lemmy more inviting to the average person on the Internet. Beyond that, I just want to build something that’s accessible by default, supports moderators with good tools, makes community discovery easier, and just makes the whole Lemmy experience more fun in general.

It’s gonna take a lot of work, but I think it’ll be worth it!

Reddit was fun, now it's Lemmy's turn

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah I’m trying to figure out Lemmy as well!

wefwef.app, Thunder, Connect, and Liftoff are already amazing btw. Boost for Lemmy and Sync for Lemmy are in the works.

Jerboa actually gives off RiF vibes for me, though it's definitely still its own thing.

On pc use this to make it look a bit more like old.reddit. I hope tweaks like this get combined into a single extension later like RES

I used snyc for Reddit and would absolutely buy it again for lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Mlem and Memmy are in the works for iOS as well and these apps seem promising. So much better than using Lemmy in a mobile browser.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Wefwef is amazing

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Liftoff is awesome, I just couldn't find it when searching the name on the Play Store. Opening this link worked: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liftoffapp.liftoff

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I ended up sideloading the APK from GitHub, since my Aurora store installation doesn't intercept play store links 😥

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

iirc you should be able to set it to open play store links. I know this because when i click on one it asks me what app i want to use with an option of the playstore, aurora store and fdroid.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I found Connect yesterday, I was using Liftoff but I've configured Connect to be as similar to Relay as possible and barring a few small issues I'm very happy so far

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Summit and wefwef.app too

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm using Memmy (https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy) and even though it's still in testflight I'm socked with the vast amount of updates, you get pretty much one a day and features are building up very quickly. It gives me a similar experience as Apollo used to. RIP Apollo

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Yes Memmy is nice. I liked wefwef obviously for its UI but it lack one big thing, being able to save a post.

But on Memmy I can save stuff so it’s my new Apollo.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Ah man, I was like this is not a very big deal but in a way I felt a little sad when it actually stopped working. They should rename the app to, reddit is not fun.
