Memmy with the Apollo-inspired Sunset theme has been giving me a nice same-but-different vibe. That said, if Christian enters the Lemmy arena I’d happily support him.
edit: Ah, I see it’s a webapp which you store “as a shortcut” to safari.
pleasant to hear, but too many steps and unorthodox for some people. Not all people would love to hear that instead of going to appstore and hitting “install” they would have to do 5-6 separate steps instead they’ve never done (including me, and Im a software engineer:P) And before that, you have to think that “hey, how do I put this on my homescreen again?” and either you hit settings intentionally or by mistake, or somebody has to tell you. Like … too many steps between having the app on your menu/using it everyday and “installing” it.
You have to do the “install” procedure only once. Downside is when I clear my history and website data, I also need to login again to lemmy. So a dedicated app would be better instead of this web app.
It was really easy for me actually, just go to wefwef.app (or whatever the new url is now that it’s called voyager) on my browser of choice, go to settings and tap install, and then it automatically makes an icon on my home screen to put where I want. Still gotta sign in or make an account but that’s fairly easy, but works and looks like a normal app for the most part otherwise
For reference I’m on Android using Firefox so that may be different on ios

Try wefwef for a full scale Apollo experience
Yeah wefwef is the best look-a-like experience for Lemmy. like Apollo was for Reddit.
Wefwef is rebrand as voyager now FYI. Just saw it on my feed, in case anyone was confused like me.
I tried to find wefwef on appstore, no chance.

What if we don’t want a web app though?
Most beta apps are full already Mlem and Memmy are coming out soon on the App Store.
i’m using memmy as well; it’s got some overtones of apollo; an amazing start - yea same lol
