Wefwef for Lemmy feels exactly like Apollo. (wefwef.app)

I’m not sure if you’ve tried this PWA called Wefwef but it feels like a fully featured Apollo client for Lemmy already. You just go to the site and add it to your home screen. No beta to sign up for. No TestFlight link. Just add the PWA.

It’s good. It’s really really good.

It can look as nice as it gets. A PWA remains a PWA. Yes, I understand that there are people that like it. I don't. I still hope for an Apollo port to Lemmy. But the development progress of Mlem and Memmy is remarkable as well.

Genuinely curious, why do you not like PWAs?

They never manage to feel native. Keeping data reliably? - Not really possible. Stability? - Fully reliant on the browser. Native notifications, target for sharing stuff, etc.? - Never seen it. ...

It always feels like a compromise.
