There seems to be many lemmy apps available. I already tried few apps though I don’t even know where to find most of the others. Instead of trying every single one of them I’d like to know if there’s anything similar to RIF. Here’s some key features of RIF:

  • Simple. Mostly text and no complicated UI elements.
  • Information density. I can see a list of eight posts on my screen. Again, it’s just text with no UI decorations.
  • One handed browsing. As I hold my phone with right hand I can easily access both linked url and comments of a post with my right thumb (buttons on right side of the screen).
  • Comment navigation. This is not as important but in larger threads it’s useful to navigate between parent comments.

If there’s nothing similar available, maybe these could be added to an existing implementation. I could even try to help as I am programmer, though I don’t know much about mobile app development.

      How do you get it? Search returns nothing.

          Sadly I hate that very hard forced generic iOS design. Makes the website/app look like it has no personality at all and looks low effort design-wise, because it reminds me of those 2005 websites who don’t use styles at all and it just defaults to the browser/OS styles. I like when apps have personality and carefully designed UI and controls. We are losing creativity and personality in search of this “consistency” bs, in all OSs really, makes me sad.

            Eh. I don’t need a UI to have “personality.” It just needs to work. The content is the personality. I’d actually hate it if the app inserted its personality between me and the content.

            Looks like that dev took a lot of cues from Apollo which is a good thing to do.

        It’s a web-based app. In your safari browser on your iPhone go to wefwef.app and follow the directions you find there to add it to your homepage. After that it behaves like any other app!

          Thanks. Very nice for a webapp. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me how to reply to your comment though. No reply button came up no matter what I did. This is one of my gripes with the web apps you add to home: you don’t get a refresh button and sometimes you need it.
