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

WefWef's community page: c/wefwef

https://lemmy.world/c/wefwef

Courtesy of KillaBeez@lemmy.world for telling us about it.

Update:

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

https://w.opnxng.com/settings/install

Here's the Dev's notes on that:

w.opnxng.com - wefwef hosted by Opnxng in Singapore.

Note: Community deployments are NOT maintained by the wefwef team. They may not be synced with wefwef's source code. Please do your own research about the host servers before using them.

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

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.

[–] 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

One thing that bugs me, and I found the same with Thunder, is that I cannot sort posts by Top (Day, Week, etc.). Any reason why that is?

[–] ilovetvshows@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I installed the app. But have a question. Before logging in, it asks me to select a server. Now I created my account on ".ml" domain so here too I had to selected that only because when I selected ".world", it told me invalid credentials. Is that expected behavior?

Totally agree. I never thought the best client would be a web app on my home screen, but here we are!

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

This is nice! my only suggestion would be the ability to minimize cards for a text feed, if that's something that's eventually possible.

I like how smooth wefwef is, but if I could keep everything from auto-expanding (i.e. just scrolling through titles instead) it'd be closer to the old.reddit / RiF experience 🙂

Been trying out Lemmy and have been looking for a good Apolo Alternative. I joined on lemmy.world, but pretty much any 3rd party app will just return "Record not found" or "User Not Found" or "Something went wrong"
Would this be due to lemmy.world's update to 1.18? or have I done something wrong?

[–] Demigod787@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Lemmy is taking me 20 sec just to load my profile. And I am browsing on my desktop. The site is getting SMOTHERED.

For me, it’s failing trying to log into Lemmy.world

[–] Demigod787@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm on Lemmy.world it works just as well

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

Then you havent tried Memmy :)

[–] TrontheTechie 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Memmy is pretty good but my profile doesn’t load on it. I have no real problems with wefwef. The only real gripe I have with wefwef is the profile page is a little sparse and is missing avatar, banner, bio, etc.

[–] casualPeeper@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 years ago

Very Apollo like. Lightweight. As mentioned in above comment, I am also wondering about the username and password but I am not a code reader so I will trust the community to confirm.

[–] mingistech@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm blown away what a great experience this is for a web app. Really.

[–] Eiernockerl@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Thank you! Looks good!

[–] lockieluke3389@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It feels so weird iOS interface but a PWA, I’m a fellow Memmy user

[–] Fandangalo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Giving this a go, and enjoying it so far.

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

This is amazing. Using it in my iPad Mini right now!
