if you want to post links or discuss Reddit over the next while, please localize it to this thread in order to keep things tidy, thanks! (a more formal body may be forthcoming, but that’ll come in the morning if so)

If they really do shut off API access I’ll go into partial link aggregator withdrawal. My Lemmy instance still isn’t upgraded to the latest versions which are compatible with apps, so I don’t browse on my phone.
Try using the Progressive Web App (PWA) instead. I’m on iOS and haven’t found a good app for Lemmy yet but the PWA has helped me get used to Lemmy on my phone in place of Reddit. You just open the site in your phone’s native browser (Safari on iOS, probably Chrome on Android?) and choose “Save to Home Screen”. Now it looks like any other app and behaves like it too, even though it’s secretly just the web page.
Give wefwef a try. It’s a third party PWA app already looking very similar to Apollo.
hi, do you think you could walk me through how to download something like this or point me in the direction of a guide or something that could? i’ve been using lemmy just on browser but would be interested in something like this, i’ve just never installed anything like it before and don’t quite know what to do :) thanks!
Open https://wefwef.app in your mobile browser, open the share slid out menu or however that menu is called and click on “add to home screen”. That’s it.
Second the PWA, it’s pretty decent.
I think on Android you can do it with any browser that supports it (I do believe Firefox has the support too). On iOS Safari is the only browser anyway, the others are cosmetic and functional improvements, but have to use Webkit for the actual website displaying stuff
Just tossing this out there, I’m commenting from memmy (iOS) and it’s great. Still beta and incomplete but really nice UI and themes. New features being added literally daily. Feels much more native and usable than the web interface.
