The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I’m just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It’s a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!
(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)
Installation:
https://wefwef.app/settings/install
WefWef’s community page: c/wefwef
Courtesy of [email protected] for telling us about it.
Update:
Having issues? It’s to do with rate limitations, this should be resolved soon but right now you can Use:
https://w.opnxng.com/settings/install
Here’s the Dev’s notes on that:
w.opnxng.com - wefwef hosted by Opnxng in Singapore.

Note: Community deployments are NOT maintained by the wefwef team. They may not be synced with wefwef’s source code. Please do your own research about the host servers before using them.
EDIT: This is now resolved, because @[email protected] is awesome.
hi! wefwef dev here.
https://wefwef.app is getting rate limited by lemmy.world. The growth in traffic over the last 24 hours has been incredible.
That’s why you’re probably getting error messages. Hang in there, we’re working it out. :-)
In the meantime, self host (it’s just a simple docker container!) or use a community deployment (if you trust the administrator).
hi! lemmyworld admin here.
If I did it right, wefwef.app should no longer be rate-limited. Please let me know if it worked.
You rock! 🤘
Like a charm!
I’ve noticed a lot fewer errors now. Thank you
Contrast this interaction with the spaz/Christian public dust-ups, and let’s all feel fortunate to be here. Thanks to both of you devs for making cool stuff.
Ur both amazing!
Ruud to the rescue!
Your app is really good. Well done!
Its not only miles better than the default mobile experience on Lemmy, it is also has features like swiping that I have never seen used on a web app before.
Do you have some kind of roadmap of features that will be added?
Some things I think would add to the experience are:
Just the GitHub issues atm. Thing have kinda exploded over the last 48 hours so still playing catch-up. That being said, feel free to search through and create issues!
OK great, thank you;
App looks great so far!
Will it have auto marking posts as read just by scrolling past them? No other apps do this yet…it was Apollos best feature!
Also no dark mode?!
Installing it via saving to the iPhones Home Screen……how do we update an app like this? Never done that before 😄
I’m using it in dark mode right now.
Updates are in the settings menu.
It’s a web app, it updates automatically behind the scenes
What an honour, fantastic app btw, it takes after the best after all. But I’m getting flashbacks with the rate limit thing, it’s this going to be a problem like Reddit or what’s going on?
This is an excellent web app! Thank you!!
What’s the long term plan? Everyone hosts their own instance in Docker? I was thinking about using AWS container instances. I wonder how I would protect my publicly available interface though. I want to be able to access it from anywhere without vpn or firewall limitations. Do you have any good suggestion?
The long term plan is Lemmy to allow CORS * for web clients like Mastodon does, which should completely resolve this problem. :)
It should be in the next version! See: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3109
This is awesome. Thank you for the amazing project. Feels way more responsive than even the various apps floating around. Exciting stuff!
Is it possible to add haptics to a web app like Wefwef?
Yes, if it eventually get bundled into in actual app store app with Capacitor. Which might be in the future.
Or if Apple provides a haptic API for web apps. That would be wonderful.
