❤️‍🔥 🎇 It’s finally here! And it will live on my home screen just like Apollo used to do. 🔥 ❤️‍🔥

Just spreading this news in case you’re like me and late to the good news :)

Having lots of errors signing into various accounts when I was trying to find what server to call home... got my lemmy.world account and beehaw to work, but no luck with kbin.social...

Other than that, works pretty well. Obviously a long way off the gloriousness of Apollo, but not so far off that I'd rather stick with a web shortcut. Seeing a lot of image previews turned into 🔗 instead of showing thumbs, and so many sites now rejecting access due to the use of a VPN... but that's more a web problem than a Memmy prob I suppose.

Feature-request-wise, it would also be nice to see a more customizable feed that could hook into any combination of my various accounts with a tier-style prioritization on which account to load a subscription when a particular subscription exists across those accounts.

Exciting times either way!

kbin is federated with lemmy (and mastadon) but it is actually its own software with its own (unfinished) API.

One of the Memmy devs here - We don't support kbin (they don't have an API). Did you have issues with signing into any Lemmy instances specifically?

If I’m on the TestFlight is it important to switch?

Edit: question answered

[–] Amcro@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

TestFlight will still receive new betas, if you don’t want to beta test new releases, just want to have latest stable release download the one from the store. Both will work just fine so you can stay on TestFlight one if you want to.

In case someone from Android wanders in looking for suggestions, I would highly recommend liftoff. I've been using it for a couple of days and it's really fluid and responsive.

[–] Kallioapina@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (5 children)

I have also been using it the past week or so. Works pretty well and UI is good and intuitive.

Loving the app competition. Mlem is coming along really nice as well. I truly wish Lemmy takes over Reddit.

[–] EbonyEarl@lemmy.fmhy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

I am guessing this is the Apollo equivalent? Do we know anything about an Infinity for Lemmy?

[–] RexRegum@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

So I just found out about lemmy today and tried to search for it on the App Store, and apparently it’s only been released these days? Damn

Anyways, does anyone know why the app doesn’t let you upvote or comment?

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

When is it coming to Android?

Downloaded it and I think it‘s really neat! Improved my experience instantly!

[–] Spud29@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is there an iPad version of Memmy? I use Android for my phone, but I do have an iPad Pro that I occasionally use.

[–] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It should work for iPad (unless the dev listed it as non compatible), but that doesn't necessarily mean it's been optimized for iPad yet.

Just found it abouf 20 min and been scrolling through. It's pretty nice, but on dark mode at least it's really hard to tell the difference between where one post ends and another begins. Also, haven't checked, but a compact mode would DC be great too.

[–] SeaOtter@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Compact is available :)

Settings -> Content -> toggle Compact View.

I thought it was missing at first because it wasn’t in the Appearance section of the Settings.

Just got it as a BaconReader refugee. Loving it so far.
