New subreddit talking about it here. I'm assuming it will eventually be a Lemmy community

Mlem is a good beginning, but I hope for an Apollo-level quality app for Lemmy. It'll come, in time. And perhaps SyncForLemmy will be just that!

[–] BrooklynMan@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That is our goal with Mlem. And trust me, our team is working, as absolutely fast as we can! Keep in mind, though, we’re starting from scratch. 😁

[–] Wdc610@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you for working on this! I love Mlem and am excited to see how it develops.

[–] sparkl_motion@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I’m using the app now, and it has seen some real improvements.

Are you guys taking feedback seriously? I don’t want to dump it in a circular bin.

[–] useful_idiot@lemmy.eatsleepcode.ca 7 points 1 year ago

I think it’s only a matter of time. I hope Lemmy/fediverse keeps up the momentum, it’s so great being off Reddit.

[–] FalseLight@lemmy.one 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Have to assume it’ll be Android-only like Sync for Reddit is/was, right?

[–] DeflectedBullhorn@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Likely at first, but Sync for Reddit has a TestFlight for an iOS Version. I suspect that effort could be carried over if the porting process isn’t too arduous.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 year ago

There was a Sync for iOS beta at one point... in the dark days before Apollo.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There's also Memmy. https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD

But it's also unfinished

[–] administrator@lemmy.pro 9 points 1 year ago

I’m testing Memmy and it’s rapidly being amazing, super impressed

And Thunder (ios and android) https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder

[–] hannes3120@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

That one looks great!

Last time I checked it wasn't on any of the stores - now it's listed on FDroid from the izzysoft repo!

I have been using Mlem for a while and the last update or two through TestFlight have completely gotten rid of crashes (for me!). I know a lot of features are missing, but Mlem seems to be going in a great direction.

[–] ulkesh@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah it's not bad, but there are numerous features I see missing, including simply saving photos easily. I know it's a volunteer effort and I know in time all things will come. I don't mind being patient :) I just know I'm going to miss Apollo and all the polish that application had.
