It has a really nice UI.
Link to the github: https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef
It is listed under web apps in this thread: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
This is honestly amazing and I cannot believe this hasn’t blown up yet. It is so close to the Apollo experience that I now have zero reason to stay on Reddit.
As a total noob, I wasn’t able to install it from github. (Which might be the reason for the app not blowing up.) Any advice for dummies?
I don’t think you install anything, it’s a website. Try using this link: https://wefwef.app/posts/lemmy.world/all
Thanks a lot!
You don’t need to install from GitHub, you can use the one already setup by the developer at https://wefwef.app
The installation instructions on the GitHub is for hosting it on your own server if you want to go that route, but isn’t necessary.
Thanks!
It’s incredibly fast as well. Beautiful UI
Thank you! I just tried it and my Lemmy experience is so much better.
Yep its really impressive for such an early project.
Having said that I can’t work out how to edit comments/posts I have made.
It would also be nice to have a preview of your comment too.
Hopefully they add that at some point.
Been using it today and so far so good. Looking forward to improvements with the commenting UI and some more sort options like Top Day from the ‘official’ Lemmy web client.
Edit: would be good to be able to edit stuff too.
Holy shit. I’m always shocked when PWAs are this good.
Holy shit this is a beautiful app. Been trying it out today and had a moment of “when did I reinstall Apollo?”
Haven’t figured out why I can’t search nsfw communities. For science of course
My errr… friend, was also asking about this.
Arrived here from r/apolloapp and I’m pleasantly surprised! Perfect timing. I will miss Apollo as it shuts down tomorrow. Here’s hoping we have some good communities on Lemmy.
This is incredible. But UI is ios inspired. Seems out of place in Android.
Yes, very disorienting
This is incredible. It’s so much better than Jerboa.
Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for this suggestion, I just started using it and it seems great far
I like it, but it’s got the same problem as Thunder. I can’t sort by top!
Also by far my favorite client. Just wish I could make the text bigger for my aging eyes…
You can! Just to to Settings - Appearance
Ooooh, wasn’t there last time I looked, thanks !
Couldn’t figure out to reply to your comment though. Had to go to the website… :/
Long left swipe on the comment you want to reply to. It will show an arrow symbol on a blue background. As soon as you let go of the swipe, the text editor will pop up. It’s very similar to Apollo. I do miss the ability to customize the swipe gestures. Hopefully they implement that soon.
How do you get it on Android?
It’s web-based, so you log into the site with your Lemmy credentials then click the menu button in your web browser and hit install. Info at https://wefwef.app/settings/install
Been using it today and it’s been pretty good. Only bug is sometimes when I come back out of a post to the main feed, the feed becomes frozen. Need to click one of the menu buttons and return to the feed to get it working again.
