How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?
Here and not there too. I saw my last post when Apollo got cut off.
It was difficult to figure out how this works at first and wait for the Memmy TestFlight, but now I’m happy.

I haven’t used liftoff but Memmy is also quite nice!
Liftoff is on android and Memmy is on IOS
Liftoff is Flutter and thus runs on everything.
Yep, happily testing out Liftoff on iOS. I still find myself using Memmy more often but it’s close. Pretty nice to have a bunch of options to explore developing at such a high rate.
Ahh, makes sense!
Both are on test flight (beta prerelease) for iOS. I can’t log in on Liftoff, so memmy is my current go-to.
I have been using Memmy too. It has been excellent.
Just started lemmy and Memmy today. It’s been a great experience so far. The learning curve isn’t nearly as large as has been reported
A big part of that smooth experience is all the progress that’s been made in the past month, on both Lemmy and Memmy.
The Memmy app only started out as a beta in TestFlight ~4 weeks ago, and was limited to 10k users. The developer has made a truly inhuman amount of progress in that time - he was (and still is) pushing updates more than once a day. It’s only been in the regular App Store for a few days now.
Additionally, the largest Lemmy instance (lemmy.world) was having stability issues with the massive influx of users. But just a few days ago they figured out what was causing the problems, and the latest version of Lemmy has those fixes.
Wow, when you put it like that, it really highlights how much work got put into this because the experience, especially for a brand new app, is very reminiscent of Apollo. They’ve done a great job so far. Obviously not near where Apollo was, but that was over 9 years of development. Memmy looking great* so far
So far the issue that I’ve been having with Memmy is that dictation doesn’t work properly: it will delete a dictated comment when you stop/finish dictation.  There’s a lot to like about it but until that’s fixed I’ll be using Mlem. 
Agreed, liftoff has been super smooth so far
I have been using liftoff also but it is very difficult to find new communities not on your instance or on lemmy.world through the app I couldn’t figure it out at first glance so I add them through a web browser and then can access them on the app
I’ve been adding and blocking communities through the browser since I joined. None of the apps currently seem to be able to add or block communities from other instances flawlessly just yet. I am enjoying watching this whole work in progress that is Lemmy though.
Yeah it does seem the apps are currently limited in that regard, hopefully development pace will continue and we’ll be up to a point where we can do that in the next few weeks.
Once the apps are in a good state we can see how viable this will be long term.
That’s what I am having to do too and thought I was just missing something, but that makes sense since everything is in flux and that might not be the greatest priority since the exodus is ongoing and stability/keeping up with updates is way more important.

I have stuff all idea how half of this works and how I’m doing it, I saw a post recommending liftoff and it’s been easy enough to blunder through. I’ve tried using the mobile web interface for Reddit and it’s like pulling teeth.
I checked it a few times on a web browser but only a handful. Pretty much done after apollo was killed while I was browsing. It was weird watching the app die in real time
