Hi there! So there’s been a ton of work by a bunch of developers that are really frustrated with Apollo going away end of month.
That’s why I created (yet another) Apollo-like Lemmy client called wefwef - https://wefwef.app.
Right now it’s targetting iOS - you can still use it on Android phones, but it’s untested. An Android theme is in the works!
So, why wefwef?
- Progressive web app — It’s easy to try, and works cross platform. Get the same experience on your phone, tablet and computer. If you like it, add to home screen for a like-native experience.
- Open source! Self hosting and hacking is totally doable
There’s a TON of work to be done, but the basics are there (browsing, commenting and voting). More to come soon! Let me know what you think.
How do i self host and how do i get updates directly from you so my instance can stay updated? also do i need to upgrade my vps or will it just be me on the self hosted wefwef PWA or something?
It’s pretty lightweight, check out the readme. Info on auto updates with lighthouse too
