So this Lemmy place is pretty awesome, and I see it growing by the hour! Just like others link external sites for content here, we should really also share Lemmy content to external (e.g. Reddit, Twitter, etc.) to show others where the users are going now.
Redditors will talk about Lemmy and moving communities here, but it is really best shown that the communities are rebuilding here. Thoughts? I’ve started with a few memes and am starting a new community here as well!
An iOS and android app would be helpful in making lemmy more accessible
I’m using Memmy, whose UI is inspired by Apollo. It’s not perfect, but functional and looks great! You can use it through TestFlight
Memmy is so good! New features are being added so quickly it’s like opening a present every day I open the app
Memmy is my vote as well. It’s actually wild how quickly it’s come into shape
The developer is an absolute beast. Homie has been pushing 2 to 5 major features releases a day.
Folks at memmy@lemmy.ml are actually starting to get concerned and are telling him to take a break 😆
Lemmy already has a few apps for Android like Jerboa,Connect for Lemmy,and Liftoff. IOS has mlem and probably a few more. They’re not yet as good as reddit TPAs but they’re there and being actively developed.
I think it’s kbin that needs an app rn as it’s growing rapidly and the only app O know for it (Artemis) is still in alpha.
Apollo for Lemmy or kbin, made by the same dev, would be absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, I think he’s given up on social media apps entirely.
That sucks. I’m not on IOS but apl the feedback I heard from people is that Apollo is a great app.
It was fantastic, and the only reason I was able to continue using Reddit.
Memmy for iOS feels a lot like Apollo so far and it’s getting at least 2-3 updates per day. It’s still in beta so you need to get it via TestFlight, but once it’s downloaded it feels just like any other app. To me, it has far outpaced Mlem even after just 23 days since its first beta release. Here’s the link once you’ve downloaded TestFlight: https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy
Artemis is another one that’s in development and heavily influenced by Apollo (hence the name). I don’t think it’s available yet in beta but the preview images from a few days ago look promising.
This Beehaw post of useful links seems to maintain a list of apps and their development stages: https://beehaw.org/post/683217
Voyager is amazing, and works on both iOS and Android
