Where did you land? Voyager, Mlem?
Not the person you replied to, but Memmy and then Voyager once Memmy became unmaintained. I’m mostly happy with it, and it seems to generally improve with time.
Only complaint now is weirdness around sharing images with other apps: sometimes they show up as the image URL and sometimes as the actual image
That Memmy dev went unimaginable hard for a month or two, then really started to fall behind everyone else.
I wonder what happened. I wonder if they were unemployed then got a new job or something.
Yeah they had the first functional iOS app long before anyone else (Mlem had started earlier but stalled for a while). I recall some of the Memmy developer’s comments saying they had learned a lot about app development since the first beta and had big plans to overhaul the code base. I’m assuming this turned into too much for them to handle, especially as an unpaid gig.
It’s a shame Memmy’s been abandoned, but I’m still super appreciative of the developer for making a workable Lemmy app back then. It definitely helped ease the sting of the transition from Reddit.
Yeah, it was a much better experience than the Lemmy web app during the early days. Lemmy’s devs famously don’t care very much about their mobile client.
I went with Avelon until the devs went silent for awhile. Still installed, I assume they have irl problems. Right now I’m using arctic and it’s crisp as hell, very nice app
