I keep hearing more and more (overwhelming) positive praise regarding that client. I’ll stick with daily TestFlight Memmy though, I don’t know if I could ever use an app that calls itself ‘wef wef’

It's changing it's name to Voyager, if that helps. It now has registered and linked the domain vger.app and the actual renaming should happen sometime in the next few days.

Wait, really? Thank god! Cool name too, sounds like a callback to Apollo.

Guess I won’t have to have that awkward conversation with my friends where I try to explain that the client I’m using is not “Reddit for furries”

I also like the new name. I use Android so I've never used Apollo, but Voyager is definitely one of my favorite ways to use Lemmy right now, I like the gesture controls and how intuitive everything feels, and it gets better every update.

I have an Android phone, but also an iPad, so I used to use Sync and Apollo. The best thing about Wefwef / Voyager is that I can use the same app on both devices now!

[–] TheSaneWriter@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Indeed, cross platform apps are convenient. PWAs often get a bad rap, but I think Voyager has implemented it pretty well.

[–] astropenguin5@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah same here, I used the official app (disgusting I know) because I didn't mind it that much and also am on Android, but I really like wefwef/voyager. Only complaint is I don't particularly like the apple aesthetic but I've heard there will be an option to change that soon

I love the Star Trek reference

That's fair, I personally prefer Voyager but it's entirely subjective.

Wefwef is amazing!

Thankfully they’re rebranding as Voyager https://lemmy.world/post/1181356

What’s wrong with «wefwef»? Genuine question I guess 😂

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It sounds like a toddler talking to a puppy.

I withdraw my critique.

Tbh the main reason I posted was because wefwef has basically the exact same UI as Apollo ~~and was made by the same developer~~. Also apparently it's changing it's name to Voyager as I learned from other comments on this post

[–] LemmyExplain@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

It was not made by the same developer as Apollo.
