After Apollo for Reddit was wiped from the face of the earth together with most third party reddit clients, there has been an empty void as Apollo was pretty much the only social media app I used.
Downloaded and played around in Memmy for a bit and OMG this app is beautiful.
PS: Thank you so much for also being back the swipe to Upvote/Downvote feature. I discovered it on accident by muscle memory from Apollo 😏👌🏻
I may be having a brain fart but I can’t work out how to reply to a comment… I can comment on a post but when I check the comments I don’t see a way to reply.
Or if I check my comments on a post I don’t see a way to view all comments.
Swipe from right to left on a comment.
But it’s iOS only. :/
They were initially developing Android side by side but the focus became making the best iOS experience as possible. It remains to be seen whether or not they’ll continue onward with Android.
There are a bunch of Android solutions out there that are quality. Thunder, Liftoff, Jerboa - plus stuff like Sync is coming soon.
Since it’s expo, I’m sure it can also be able to create an android build in theory
From git
Probably the reason for the app not looking as ‘native’ as Apollo, I’d assume.
Here’s the official dev explanation about android https://github.com/Memmy-App/memmy/issues/318#issuecomment-1616797000
That makes sense I suppose.
Besides, Android users have wefwef too
Well, that explains all the trouble I had trying to build it for Android. I did get it to compile once, but it crashed immediately after launching.

Sounds like a ‘you’ problem… 🤷🏻♂️
I wanna point out that it is also open source

…not that I will ever read the code, but it is kool
any chance for an adroid client i apriciate jerboa but .kinda needs a better gui
Check out Connect for Lemmy. Also Boost is coming soon.
Just downloaded and this makes me very hopeful for the future. Feels like a new home after Apollo.
Yup, the community here and now this brilliant app as a start is pretty amazing. To get something so functional already in just a couple of weeks is nothing short of great.
Oh gosh. Just downloaded it and it is absolutely beautiful. This already fills the gap made by Apollo!
Thank you Gavin.
How can I find Gavin?
GAVIN?
I’m not joking I never found him, and I don’t Wana look it up
Ah. He isn’t real, all in his head
Just installed. Pretty sweet. Thanks for making it happen.
Yes I love Memmy so far!
Does anyone know how to sign out? I can’t see it in settings. Also dumb q but can Memmy connect to k.bin social? I made an account there, then got Memmy and made a new account here cuz I’m a lil lost lol
You can delete an account from the account list.
(To be technical about it, That’s a little different than signing out in that the api key issued will still be valid as Lemmy doesn’t provide a way to invalidate the key. I believe the only way to invalidate a Lemmy api key currently is to change your password)
It cannot connect a kbin account, yet. Kbin does not have an API to use to connect to the site, yet. There is an app called Artemis that is being developed that is using scraping to pull data from the site. It’s in private beta currently.
Thankyou! The exact answer I needed. I’m happy here and like flicking between Memmy and kbin :) good luck to them building their new ap!

Yeah, kind of thinking of switching if it comes to android
I’m just waiting for Boost for Lemmy to release 🤞🏻
ALSO: Kuddos for the amazingly simple analogy of hubs and emails for the startup screen, made setting up Lemmy for the first time such a breeze 💪🏻
Thanks, if you have any feedback regarding that screen let us know.
I’m on android, but my friend was confused and started asking me if lemmy was emails
Been absolutely loving the experience on Memmy so far!
Thanks so much and congrats on getting into the store!

For a first time user, I was previously very optimistic to try Lemmy on the desktop but it felt so overwhelming and confusing for me - from setting up a base account and everything. Memmy dumbed it down enough for me to get started and understand how the hell Lemmy works.
This app is beautiful, clean, easy to use and elegant. After Apollo died I went through all the Third parties and even the Reddit app. I just couldn’t do it, this app is amazing. Thank you for all the work put into this!
Looks and feels great. Wefwef is good too but not as responsive as a native app. We are taking off!
