        Damn… I hadn’t been paying attention and thought that was actually exclusively an iOS app when I’d seen it mentioned before… Looks interesting.

        Incredible, and the dev keeps updating it like twice a day.

        I’m also running a copy alongside my instance, thelemmy.club at app.thelemmy.club

        I never was really fond of web apps but this is great.

        Wow! It really does feel very similar to Apollo. It will undoubtedly make the transition easier.

        Thanks!

        Holy shit, the developer has put some serious work in. I didn’t know web apps could be that good. There’s some insane attention to detail going on here

            I’m just curious; why is it a web app and not something you can download? The black bar in the bottom of the screen makes it feel weird, also the fact that upvote/downvote colors are reversed. Other than that, it soothens my withdrawals from Apollo, and I think I’ll be using it a fair amount alongside Memmy (which feels nice, it’s not a 100% carbon copy, but familiar)

              Click the share button and save it your home screen it’ll save and operate as an app. It’s a web app just a new build option that makes it easier for something to be accessible in multiple ways.

      Didn’t the Apollo developer say that he was planning on porting his app to the fediverse?

    Man, if you told me a couple months ago, that I would stop using Reddit, I wouldn’t believe you. I’ve been on it over a decade. It took Spez ONE MONTH to undo everything and make that a reality.

    One more day until Reddit Isn’t Fun… :(

    It’s been a good run, but without RiF the site is worthless.

    That being said, it paves the way for the Fediverse to grow, so rather than celebrating the end of an era, I’m enjoying the birth of a new one.

      I crisis can be an opportunity.

      It’s unlikely that reddit was the best site possible for us. We know how to improve it.

    Even as somebody who has never used, and will likely never need Apollo, I am really grateful for what he did. However unintentionally, I think he ripped the mask off how rotten the management structure was. It’s one thing to sell ads and collect hidden metadata. Pretty much all the apps do it. But the whole way Reddit treated him was beyond despicable.

      Agreed. When I saw the Apollo thread, my first thought was ‘Nah, not even spez would do this’ but I choked on that very fast when I saw the e-mails, the audio recordings and everything. It was so blatant, so asinine, so horribly fucked up.

      I’ve never used the Apollo app, but millions of people did and in stead of thanking him for all his work, reddit just stabbed him in the back. Can’t believe there are people still taking reddit’s side on this, it’s crazy.

    Excited for Lemmy.

    Reddit was it was good while it lasted, but it was just a container for online communities. The AP protocol is superior to a centralized model in every way.

    Onwards you beautiful nerds!
