Hi, [email protected] community! It’s been exciting seeing the Lemmy apps ecosystem continue to evolve, with all sorts of options emerging. Whether you’re a seasoned resident of the Fediverse or a newcomer, we’d love to hear about your experiences and expectations for the future.
- Which Lemmy apps have you tried?
- Do you have any favourites? If so, what sets them apart from the others?
- Are there upcoming apps you’re looking forward to releasing?
- What other functionality would you like to see from a Lemmy app?
I’ve tried Jerboa, and WefWef in particular. I like both – Jerboa is a native client built using Jetpack Compose, and WefWef is built using Ionic and can be used on any device as a Progressive Web App.
WefWef is definitely the best one I’ve tried. The interface is really nice, but it’s probably only a stop gap for me until I finish working on the Material You client I’m working on (which will again be a PWA so that it’s easy for everyone to use on all their devices).
As for what sets WefWef apart is that it’s the only feature complete Lemmy client with a somewhat half decent UX (Apple’s HIG is actually pretty bad compared to Material).
Yes, an initial launch of a working version of the Material You client I’m working on. Also Sync, Boost, and the rest of the old Reddit clients.
Honestly, the one thing I’m absolutely missing is good UX patterns and proper mod tools. Since there is no AutoModerator equivalent on Lemmy, most posts go live and could break rules of a community. Currently, none of the apps have good mod tools, and having good tools for moderation on the go is absolutely essential in growing a healthy community.
