They are honestly both good, but can’t beat the native ios experience.

For me it's been a SHOWDOWN between Memmy and Mlem

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 32 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Damn it, now I have to download that one too.

[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 19 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the download, and I hope you enjoy it! We’re firm believers in the native Swift experience, even though it takes a little longer to develop in

[–] urda@lebowski.social 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

i'm sorry I don't have an opinion both are good.

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 28 points 2 years ago (2 children)

At this point I’m just collecting them all, got to pump those download numbers!

If that’s the case, be sure to get Thunder too.

Edit: Just remembered Liftoff and Nemmy.

[–] codeman869@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

There’s also Avelon, just downloaded it the other day

Trying Mlem for the first time, the only thing that bothers me is that it shows total post scores and not individual numbers for up/down votes. I like seeing when something is controversial vs ignored.

[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Funny you should mention that, I'm actually working on implementing that exact feature right now! It'll be out in the next build.

Mlem is good, but I’m holding out for the iPad version.

[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 18 points 2 years ago (3 children)

It’s coming! We’ve got development slated to start early August, it should enter TestFlight beta sometime shortly after then.

Ok good, I’m not the only one! Feel like Mlem doesn’t get enough love! I like Memmy too, don’t get me wrong.

Mostly Voyager for me because it’s almost a 1:1 clone of what I know and love.

But I have Memmy installed too and sometimes use that instead with no particular rhyme or reason.

Although that has its benefits, it still has scrolling issues for me :/

I use wefwef and it’s my first time learning about memmy.

What are the advantages of PWA?

I like wefwef but the scrolling does get me from time to time.

It’s also cool how it can update frequently and fast. It seems to get small updates most days right now.

As a ~~wefwef~~ Voyager user, I was like "What's a memmy?" but I see it's IOS only... :(

Memmy is fantastic as is the developer.

more information

[–] ericbandrews@lemmy.ml 23 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Mlem dev here—couldn’t agree more about Gavin, he’s a fantastic guy. Gave us some helpful tips about getting through App Store review. Massive props to him for getting that app up and running so fast.

[–] spacedancer@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I just want to say I love the friendly "competition" between you guys. It just results in better and better products. I have both and I use them equally. Great work on Mlem, and thanks for opening up the beta signup when I asked a couple of days ago. lol

Is like Linux distros.

[–] Ultra980@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Connect go brrr

[–] James@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 years ago

Meh, you sure can.

I have memmy and still prefer wefwef

[–] baggyspandex@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

This is me, and I’m cool with it! I like jumping into both on a daily basis to see how each progresses.

[–] dhruv@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Is this IOS only?

[–] MisterD@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

If you want a good Android Lemmy client app, get Connect.

It blows Jerboa and liftoff out of the water.

It's even getting updates once or twice a week!

[–] trigonated@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Was like "oh cool, gonna try this connect app', only to realize I was reading this comment on Connect. So many apps, man.

Jokes aside I'm loving that there's so many different clients.

No clue about memmy but WefWef aka Voyager is also available on android (as a Web app).
