A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I’m using wefwef right now, and its all running pretty smoothly. No complaints here
Maybe im used to Boost on reddit but damn, does it feel weird to vote/reply using 3 dots on the right lol.
You're upvoting wrong, my friend.
Try sliding the comment / post from left to right. Slide further to downvote.
Yes, exactly! That's my main grip with wefwef, same as not being able to swipe right to exit a thread and go back to the feed.
But most of the current apps lack some sort of behaviour customizations we're used to, so I'm keeping two or three of them checked in case of updates.
Thank goodness I’m not the only one with this problem! I’ve gotten into the habit of sliding right from the lines in between posts, but imo this should be taken care of(especially to imitate the quality greatness that was the Apollo app).
Update: this is fixed in the latest Lemmy update.
Im pretty sure all these apps got created just this month so they would obviously not be feature complete yet, when i joined the only apps were jerboa and mlem
wefwef.app votes with swipes from the left. Short swipe to upvote, long swipe to downvote
I have seen wefwef cited a bit now, what is it? Forgive my ignorance, but I'm new to Lemmy and I'm still learning. It is not an app, is it a website? I have tried to connect to wefwef.net but with no success, so I'm a bit confused.
wefwef.app works for me
It's lemmy client. It's perfect in every way. Check it out at wefwef.app
Is it an app or only a website?
You can install it as an app. I don't know about iOS, but on Android go to wefwef.app, click the three dots in the top right, and click the install button, and it will appear to be just like any other app.
It’s very similar on IOS. Press the “share” icon and select “Add to Home Screen”.
Thanks! Now on WefWef!
It's a website that you can install as an app on your phone. That's called a "Progressive Web App" (PWA).
Workplace' WiFi was blocking it, now I managed to get it installed. Seems nice, thanks for the help!
I've installed it and quite like it on first feel. However for the love of god I can't find the subscribe button when clicking on a community, care to point it out what I'm (obviously) missing?
When you are on the community view, not inside a discussion: Top right ellipses (three dots) > Subscribe
Ooh thanks!
Welcome!
wefwef.app works for me
My only issues is with when returning to all posts it freezes sometimes. But that can be due to I’m on iPhone and this is PWA
Memmy is great too, and also on both Android and iOS
You do have to build it yourself for Android right now though, hope it'll be on the playstore soon.
Same on my iPhone. Hope they fix that in the next couple of weeks.
