I’d love to try wefwef but it seems to only support 3 different Lemmy instances. I’d like to use it with my own instance.
EDIT: thanks for pointing out that it’s indeed possible to use wefwef with any instance. What an amazing PWA!

You can, just hit the profile button at the bottom, hit "login" in the top right, then select "other"
You can use it with your own instance. There’s an “other” option in the latest release that lets you plug in the URL.
Memmy TestFlight is full unfortunately :( any word on when it will be released on App Store?
I believe it’s already been submitted for review so it depends on Apple
It was submitted to the App Store with the last beta update. I predict it getting rejected because of the nsfw toggle. That created trouble for Apollo in the past.
From the Apple App store policy:
your app includes user-generated content from a web-based service, it may display incidental mature “NSFW” content, provided that the content is hidden by default and only displayed when the user turns it on via your website.
Does lemmy support toggling NSFW content (or is it instance based)? I wonder if apps like memmy can leverage this toggle if it exists to pass the App Store review (don’t know much about how memmy currently does it).
Lemmy supports it on your profile, you should see a checkbox for "Show NSFW Content" if you click your username in the top right and then settings (if you're using the default web interface, anyway). I believe this is disabled by default. Instances can also block NSFW for the entire instance, there's an "Enable NSFW" option in the admin settings. This is also disabled by default.
Memmy itself has two settings, which look like they're independent of your Lemmy profile: one which enables or disables NSFW entirely (which is disabled by default), and one which can blur NSFW if it's enabled.
I suspect they'll raise an eyebrow or two with the App Store reviewers, but they do have prior art they can point to as well as that section of the policy you just posted. We'll have to wait and see; I haven't checked myself to see if they passed review or not.
First submissions typically don't pass anyway from what I understand for a myriad of reasons, so don't be surprised if it does get rejected. They'll just update the app and try again.

I am going to give wefwef a try. I was using Mlem at first but I wasn't a fan. Still a bit worried about wefwef as I wasn't a fan of Apollo at all but willing to try!
Thanks for putting together this list!

Why does Olympus require iOS 17 or newer?
Probably because they developed it with the latest SDK and APIs
I love Memmy
I usually like dedicated apps, but wefwef changed my mind. It’s by far the best PWA I’ve seen so far.
Nicely done! 👏
Wefwef is shockingly usable considering it’s a PWA. Only thing that’s reminding me this isn’t Apollo is the occasional need to tap again before scrolling.
I'm switching over from android to iOS next week. Can sometime please share an app that I can install via Play Store?

Why is Arctic at the bottom?
Mostly when it was released or when I noticed it was released. It’s in no particular order
Please follow the link at the top for updated list
I personally use Lemma. Great app, still in TestFlight but very promising
Wefwef and thunder. Thunder is really fast.
Just downloaded Thunder, but is seems to have the same issue on iPad as Memmy, where image/web previews are reduced down to a short and wide slit of the image. wefwef is the best for iPad that I’ve used so far.
Edit: scrap that, there is a setting on Thunder to view full height images.
Anybody else getting “Problem fetching posts” errors after installing Wefwef?
There's an update available for the wefwef app in the settings menu. Updating may help resolve your issue.
Working now after the latest update. Thanks!
Not able to connect to wefwef today. Says safari cannot establish a secure connection. Not sure if anyone else seeing this. On mobile.
Wefwef isn’t as stable as Apollo :/
It’s not wefwef but the instance you joined getting overwhelmed as people move to Lemmy (and particularly lemmy.world)
is anyone else having an issue with wefwef not loading posts? i can see all of the communities i'm subbed to, but wefwef won't show my lemmy profile or user posts.
wefwef is now having issues with lemmy.world
