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).

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!

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)
[–] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

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

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

Wow what a throwback just looking at the pics!

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

This would be incredible. I've already been directing other redditors here with a screenshot of the mlmym front end.

[–] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 2 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.

[–] iso@lemy.lol 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Nice idea! Just stole that xd 🀦 Here's old.lemy.lol!

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

This would be amazing.

@ruud experiencing connection issues

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

I think this was the ddos attack lemmy.world was experiencing

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

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

[–] JackFromWisconsin@midwest.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

0.18.2 is the most recent version...

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

I just now realized I got Voyager and Lemmy versions confused. You are right about 0.20 being the most recent voyager version.

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

@ruud, any chance we can get voyager updated. Post editing has been added in .20 and it can’t be done in .18.2

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

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 2 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.

[–] bunkyprewster@startrek.website 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Does anyone know how the hiding is implemented?

Will they still be hidden if I look at lemmy through my instance directly?

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

It is not connected to the Lemmy account... I used their URL "vger.app" at first, but then lemmy.world implemented it themselves. When I logged in over that URL, I had to "rehide" the topics.

Sorry, I don't know the specifics.

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

Just saw this, that's very cool! will be trying it out

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 1 points 2 years ago

Sweet! I've been doing the same for a week or two at https://app.thelemmy.club

I just disabled the "other" login feature so it only works on thelemmy.club

[–] BendyLemmy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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?

[–] sphred5@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] wile_e8@lemmy.world 0 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?

[–] Aux@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

That iOS UI though... No, thanks.

[–] Molecular0079@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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.

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

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

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

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

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

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

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

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 0 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 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] Rootiest@lemmy.world 1 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.

[–] G0FuckThyself@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What is the difference between wefwef and m.lemmy.world?

[–] aeharding@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

btw, wefwef is called Voyager now.

Just because it had to be more confusing πŸ˜…

Sorry!

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

also if your account isn’t on lemmy.world

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

[–] Amir@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm fairly sure Voyager is a fully client-side app that can use the API from any instance directly no matter where it's hosted. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The devs themselves said they need to proxy information including password through their servers due to how cors works. But people are saying that this may be resolved somehow, so idk.

[–] Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a dev of a web Lemmy client, this was fixed in Lemmy 0.18.1, a proxy is no longer necessary.

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

Okay. I've seen someone mention that it's not needed, but nobody seemed to care about the whole problem to elaborate. Thx.
