The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I'm just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It's a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!

(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)

Installation:

https://wefwef.app/settings/install

Having issues? It's to do with rate limitations, this should be resolved soon but right now you can Use:

Thanks, installed. But still rooting for Memmy too! Love everyone who is stepping up to the plate for the mobile app scene!

[–] ycleptshawn@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the post. Installed to Home Screen on iPhone. Working nicely to start. Looks good.

Bumped into this app yesterday and it’s so user friendly! Can’t wait for more features to be added.

Incredible app! Never realized a web app could be so sexy.

Is there a way to hide read posts?

I’m so confused. How can it be so rich without being a full blown app? I have been enjoying Memmy, but can’t really find what separates the two.

I agree, I just wish it ran smoother and was more reliable. I'm experiencing a lot of "failed to load", "failed to upvote", and "failed to comment". A community you can't engage with is no community at all.

[–] ycleptshawn@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes. I can't use it since I got on the first time. I'm figuring it is volume and come back later.

This is an awesome app, thanks!

[–] tiwenty@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Indeed it's awesome, thank you!

If you're loving wefwef because of it's Apollo likeness, then you need to checkout Memmy

It actually introduces all the features Apollo had with native haptics, slide interactions and navigations, push notifications, and more. The developers have been working hard and pushing releases daily (sometimes multiple per day).

As an Apollo users for the last 6 years, Memmy has been by far the best iOS app for Lemmy that I have tried (which have been Mlem, Thunder, Liftoff (prev. known as Limbo)

I’m brand new to Lemmy but this looks great and makes me feel at home already! Thanks for the recommendation

[–] lhx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

It doesn’t work on an XR. The interface is too tiny to click login unfortunately.

[–] foundingPapa@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

One suggestion for wefwef is to be able to browse all communities of the particular instance you’re logged in to, or even better, have a page of all instances and the communities they encompass

[–] stripes@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

On the front page of wefwef you can choose to look at communities you are subscribed to, all federated communities, or “local” communities aka communities from the instance you are logged in on!

You are a beautiful being.

[–] MrShelbySan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yooo that’s amazing. I was using Memmy but I’ll switch over to wefwef. It looks just like Apollo!

[–] guru_meditation@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This app is awesome, thanks for sharing! Congrats to the developer

[–] cityslicker343@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Where is all the nsfw stuff though

Absolutely. If it just simplified the sign up by randomly choosing a non controversial instance to register on (vlemmy.net, reddthat.com, lemm.ee etc), it'd already be recommendable to non-lemmy users.

beehaw.org is too controlling, lemmy.world is overloaded and blocked by beehaw, and lemmy.ml is having trouble federating with kbin. I'm sure these will be addressed later and they're all still usable... but yeah

Also, +1 to Voyager, wefwef does not go down well with non-lemmings

Wow, now this is a reddit replacement! I love it. Thanks for the recommendation!

Wefwef is gorgeous for sure and eerily familiar to ex Apollo users. It does show the red error message a lot though. It even said my user doesn’t exist when I logged in, but somehow I am still logged in. And it only lets me upvote every second click. We’ll see if it lets me post this.

But visually it’s a pretty stellar effort.

[–] DarkWasp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This is looking good so far, really captures the Apollo feel well. Hoping it continues to develop and/or potentially becomes an iOS app at some point.
