Is the Lemmy folks able to get the Apollo dev to create a Lemmy iOS app?

Check out wefwef, it’s a mobile app but it replicates the Apollo experience shockingly well.
I can confirm it’s pretty fuckin lit, didn’t expect PWA to be such a good experience
It’s utterly changed my opinion on web apps. It’s astonishingly good.
Replying using wefwef
Just remember to read the “Terms and Privacy” before using it.
wefwef.app proxies information and you need to rely on their promise to not log, sell or inspect it.
They also collect “aggregated anonymized analytics”.
As an alternative, you can install any Lemmy website as PWA app. Also, the native phone app Jerboa doesn’t have those issues. You might want to consider one of those alternatives instead.
As an alternative you can self host wefwef so that should alleviate some of the concerns
In one of his interviews he said he wasn’t very interested at the moment. But he did say he will watch Lemmy and the fediverse to see the growth of it and decide later on if it’s worth it to build an app for Lemmy. He isn’t sure if Lemmy will actually grow after July 1st but time will tell.
Hey, although it’s no big deal since this is also about Lemmy, there’s a megathread for all Reddit-related news and discussion here. We’ve been encouraging everyone to direct most discussion related to Reddit there, and I figured it might be worthwhile to pose this question there since it concerns a former 3PA for Reddit. Thanks!
He already mentioned he wasn’t super interested.
I think he even said he was super uninterested. The existing platform and his use of it was what initially drove him to make Apollo. He’d have to first find that same (or more) level of commitment to lemmy.
I’m using Memmy, in beta atm, v similar
Christian has said he’s not interested currently.
I think Memmy has done an excellent job of being very “Apollo like” and would recommend you take a peek at it.
It’s available in both the App Store and TestFlight.
I moved from Apollo to Memmy and have been extremely happy. I’m in the test flight beta and I usually wake up to multiple updates each morning and all of them are moving in the right direction in my opinion.
