We've installed Voyager and it's reachable at https://m.lemmy.world, you can browse Lemmy, and login there (also if your account isn't on lemmy.world)

PS Thanks go out to @stux@stux@geddit.social , he came up with the idea (see https://m.geddit.social).

Gotta say, it's weird seeing a iOS interface on an Android device XD, but it feels very smooth and polished, especially for a web app.

[–] Rootiest@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

It's a great app but the iOS interface is keeping me from really using it. It just doesn't feel natural on Android.

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh, that's why the interface felt so weird.

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Did it feel weird? I had Apollo when I was on iOS and I felt it pretty great.

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah we know that (almost) everyone who used iOS had Apollo, it's been kind of obvious with the barrage of comments. However, there's no Apollo for android and tbh I kinda hate the iOS feel it has, so if someone says that it feels/felt weird, chances are that they are an android user.

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's what I'm seeing, honestly to me it looks and behaves great, the only downside is that it is a PWA and it doesn't feel as fast and polished as stock apps.

I am not used to Apple interface so it was just clunky and weird, yes

[–] ToastyBanana@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a iOS user, same could be said about Android. It looks bad and is unintuitive to use for me. It's about ecosystems and people getting used to one thing over the other!

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago

Definitely. Personally Liftoff is the client I am currently using and liking.

Voyager is, by far, the best lemmy experience I've tried. Hiding posts is a godsend. And they did all this as a web app?? Impressive!

[–] damnYouSun@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

And they did all this as a web app??

A lot of things that used to require native apps Android/ iOS / Windows / Mac can now be done as a web app which is easy because it means you don't need to compile the code four times.

It was working great yesterday and earlier today, but now when I am on there it shows me as logged out, and then when I log in it says it's successful, but then shows me as logged out still. They keyboard is also not working when trying to enter my user name, I had to paste it.

[–] aeharding2@voyager.lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

There’s ongoing Lemmy.world authentication issues. Should be resolved once Ruud gets online.

[–] JoeClu@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I'm having lots of problems too. Even native client apps are giving me trouble. Must be lemmy.world having issues.

[–] yoz@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Its lemmy.world They updated the version to 0.4.2 today and were getting issues. Join a different instance

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

I am using connect for Lemmy and I cannot login either, so I think is an overall problem

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

Same here. I swear lemmy.world is the most problematic instance I am encountering so far.

[–] yoz@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Join another instance. I was on lemmy.world but now jumped to aussie.zone and everything is the same after subscribing to the communities.

[–] infotainment@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (5 children)

This is a great idea, Voyager’s mobile experience is super polished.

Long shot, but would it be possible to get Mlmym installed at old.lemmy.world? Would be a fun throwback!

[–] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Let's be careful with having too many frontends though. Are we sure it underwent proper security audit? Even lemmy-ui hasn't yet and it was a victim of an embarrassing XSS attack.

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)
[–] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

old.lemmy.world would be hilarious given that lemmy.world is only one month old

[–] WaterSword@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] ibk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Wow what a throwback just looking at the pics!

Are there any instances with that front end deployed rn?

Oh, thank god they changed the name.

[–] ImTiagoSousa@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Anyone else unable to update to 0.19/0.20? I’m on 0.18.2 and the updates aren’t showing.

While I do love the quick innovation and updates of Lemmy, I have to admit that it's a bit confusing and hard to keep up with.

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

It will start to stabilize eventually, but we're probably not going to see that anytime soon!

[–] sphred5@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I seem to be having some luck when I clear website data / cache.

[–] IthronMorn@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Aaannnnddd I'm back. Was on wefwef but went to Jerboa and then connect. But I think I'll stay at voyager as it's definitely the most polished so far.

[–] CifrareVerba@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If you had an iPhone, Apollo (the app that Voyager is inspired from), that is how you’d feel about the iOS Reddit apps.

That app and this web app truly make the experience better, and what’s nice about voyager is the fact that it is a web based app so the experience is coherent between ~~devices~~ devices :)

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

What a great idea! My favorite app paired with my favorite instance is a match made in heaven! lol. Thanks Ruud!

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

Best idea ever !

[–] wile_e8@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Is there a way to change the comment sorting in Voyager? On the desktop and in the old mobile app, I preferred the "Top" sorting for comments (it's annoying that I can't set this as a default, but I'm assuming that'll get fixed in time). But when I go to Voyager, I can't figure out how to change comments away from the default sort. Is it possible to change the comment sort order in Voyager? Is it in a menu I haven't checked yet? Some button I thought did something else?

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (4 children)

also if your account isn’t on lemmy.world

To clarify, the login details only go through your server, right?

First step to log in is to paste some URL - and https://lemmy.world/ doesn't work for that... another hurdle to exclude anyone not advanced enough?
