I loath the font size of the subjects of posts in my feed. It's the opposite of sleek. Huge and bold regardless of anything I toggle. I can't find a way to change it and it puts me off. Al my font sizes are set to small, and the feed is compact, so seeing it huge and bold is just off putting.
I've kept with WefWef/Voyager for that reason alone. I come back to see if try here are more options, but it hasn't happened.
Hey I’m one of the developers of Memmy. Do you have any settings changed for font size in your iOS settings? That’s definitely not what it looks like for most users
Weird. If you care enough to join our discord i can try to help troubleshoot. Don’t know what would be causing that but like i said, im not aware of it being an issue for anyone else
So I was able to fix it after I realized font size changes require a refresh of posts. Disabling use system font size and the refreshing the posts solved the font size issue. I appreciate the invite to Discord, but life gets in the way.
Notice the gap in disparity between my name at the top, the font in the bottom row and the posts. I get it won't all be the same, but I also tried to show a post with not aton of text being in 5 rows.
Now compare to Voyager the same-ish posts...
To me, it's much cleaner and closer to my system font size. Not the end of the world, but when just scrolling through posts irks me, I look for alternatives. Though I did find a few other things I liked while figuring out how to reply and post images.
At the end of the day, I'm reasonable. People like what they like and tend to stick to that. I found WefWef/Voyager fist and it felt and looked like Apollo (font size and all). Then I found Memmy, so that might also play into it.
Once I get the equivalent to the new comment highlightinator (displays how comments are new since the last time you click the post) and customizable swipe gestures I will be very happy
Oh it was navigation gestures. Using the bottom bar to swip back and forth. I would sometimes try to upvote a comment or something and back out of the post being able to swipe forward wasn’t needed but nice to have since my thumb was already down there
Well yes. I’m actually using Memmy. But I guess I don’t see how it would be inspired by Apollo. Don’t get my wrong, the dev is doing amazing work and I think it’s the best Lemmy app right now, but Voyager is 100% Apollo’s clone.
This is true. Memmy is a great app but it's still not quite a clone of Apollo. Wefwef/Voyager is legitimately Apollo's UI, almost 1:1. It just doesn't have haptics 🙁
Oh I see what you were saying, sorry I misunderstood your point. I didn’t use Apollo much (I liked Narwhal more) so I can’t speak on how similar they are.
We are absolutely inspired by Apollo, much of the UI is very similar. We can take inspiration from Apollo without copying it 1 for 1. There’s no creative fun in just making a carbon copy of Apollo for us.
Because most images I don't want to tap on anyway. I use it more often to track news stories per my hobbies rather than to look at memes/pics/porn. I don't need the news story thumbnail taking up so much of the screen that I can only see one or two stories at a time.
I wanna see RIF for lemmy but I'm actually pretty satisfied with liftoff so far. It needs some more optimization but when it's working quickly it's a pleasure to use.
Memmy and Voyager are both amazing and reminiscent of Apollo. I pretty much switch back and forth between the two because I can’t decide which one I like better. Voyager, being a PWA, has this annoying stutter sometimes with scrolling on iOS. But other than that I think Christian should be proud that his app inspired so many others to model after.
Memmy for iOS is inspired by Christian and his work on Apollo.
And the developer is going an awesome job. It’s early but it’s really promising.
And the AppStore just got updated with new icons and less bugs!
less bugs? How do you patch that?
Bug spray or coding. Depends on the kind of bug.
99 little bugs in the code, 99 little bugs in the code. Take one down, patch it around 117 little bugs in the code
Memmy is easily a 9/10 already, just missing some features.
Been absolutely loving the Dracula (purple) theme!!

Otherwise it seems great.
Hey I’m one of the developers of Memmy. Do you have any settings changed for font size in your iOS settings? That’s definitely not what it looks like for most users
My iOS font size is at the lowest setting.
Weird. If you care enough to join our discord i can try to help troubleshoot. Don’t know what would be causing that but like i said, im not aware of it being an issue for anyone else
So I was able to fix it after I realized font size changes require a refresh of posts. Disabling use system font size and the refreshing the posts solved the font size issue. I appreciate the invite to Discord, but life gets in the way.
No worries, yea some of our memoization needs a little more work for appearance changes at the moment. I’m glad you got it working better!
Weird, I have no issues with any font sizes. Mind posting a screenshot? I’m super curious.

Here’s how my settings look.
I reinstalled and matched your settings. No dice. I wish it looked that way. Thanks for wanting to help.
I would turn off Use System Font Size and set your own size.
Damn that’s so strange. Sorry dude.
have you tried turning it (compact view) off and on again?
Wow that’s super bizarre. This is how compact view looks on my end. I normally use standard view though.
Once I get the equivalent to the new comment highlightinator (displays how comments are new since the last time you click the post) and customizable swipe gestures I will be very happy
That would be awesome. I’d also like the option to edit posts.
Oh it was navigation gestures. Using the bottom bar to swip back and forth. I would sometimes try to upvote a comment or something and back out of the post being able to swipe forward wasn’t needed but nice to have since my thumb was already down there
Yeah there’s some other 3rd feature I loved about Apollo but it always slips my mind
Pretty sure that’d be Voyager (formerly wefwef). It’s already been adopted by lemmy.world under m.lemmy.world
No, Voyager/wefwef and Memmy are separate things
Well yes. I’m actually using Memmy. But I guess I don’t see how it would be inspired by Apollo. Don’t get my wrong, the dev is doing amazing work and I think it’s the best Lemmy app right now, but Voyager is 100% Apollo’s clone.

Also missing all those cool keyboard shortcuts. I’m sure it will get there tho.

Huh, TIL. Maybe that’s why I prefer it over the other options out there, because it’s got a somewhat familiar layout and feel. Keep up the good work!
Just got it! It’s great!
Until Memmy can do a compact mode like Apollo it’s useless to me. That’s why I’m on wefwef/Voyager.EDIT: I was wrong, and looking in the wrong place for the setting.
Memmy has compact mode as of todays update I believe
It’s had it the entire time I’ve used it (last 2 weeks or so)
It does
No shade just curious, why do you like compact mode? Seems tedious to have to tap on each image for me.
Because most images I don't want to tap on anyway. I use it more often to track news stories per my hobbies rather than to look at memes/pics/porn. I don't need the news story thumbnail taking up so much of the screen that I can only see one or two stories at a time.
Ah okay that makes sense. Thanks
Sync for Lemmy.
Sync for lemmy will nearly have feature parity to old sync on launch!
Lemmy is fun
I came a little.
Terrible name, let's just stick with "Lemmy is Fun"
LIF is Fun Golden Platinum
Let the man rest for fucks sakes.
Especially after the Reddit debacle towards the end of it. The man deserves a nice holiday.
Vger.app was wefwef and is very much like Apollo
https://vger.app
I fact it’s very much like Apollo, and the whole reason I’ve come to lemmy full time the day Apollo went dark.
I’ve even self hosted it.
Memmy
after using wef wef I think we are ready for web based apps. we shouldn't be in walled garden. i didn't know web apps can be this smooth.
Lemmy is Fun
LIF is fun
Calling it now.
I'm pretty sure the developer of RIFisfun is making an app for Tildes. Or, at least, that's what I've been hearing. It's why I have a Tildes account.
Reddit is fun is fun
I wanna see RIF for lemmy but I'm actually pretty satisfied with liftoff so far. It needs some more optimization but when it's working quickly it's a pleasure to use.
Same feeling here. So far Liftoff seems like the closest experience to RiF
Voyager 😤
vger.app or m.lemmy.world, it's an open-source app that anyone can install as a web app from the two URLs, or self-host one's own.
The source app is called WefWef FYI. This “voyager” is a fork.
Edit: false. wefwef renamed app to Voyager
The wefwef dev disagrees. https://lemmy.world/c/wefwef
Oh shit i was not aware of the name change
All the best apps have a name change, best to get it out of the way early :-)
It was definitely for the better
The dev behind wefwef has essentially renamed it. There are no functional differences between the two and they’re both privy to identical updates.
Liftoff has been a joy to use.
Boost for Lemmy coming soon
Memmy and Voyager are both amazing and reminiscent of Apollo. I pretty much switch back and forth between the two because I can’t decide which one I like better. Voyager, being a PWA, has this annoying stutter sometimes with scrolling on iOS. But other than that I think Christian should be proud that his app inspired so many others to model after.
Yea but didn’t he say he’s not interested at this time? I think he just wants to chill for a bit and made enough off Apollo he can do so
I by no means mean to put any pressure on Christian or anything. Just hopeful! He should take all the time he needs.
RIF for kbin
Omelette du fromage.
Sync for Lemmy would be sexier
Boost for lemmy?
I’m a fan of the up and coming Mlem
"Now for Lemmy" I don't think it was released on iOS, but it was just magical... It's the only reason I ever used reddit to begin with.
Apollo for lemmy for android
hella yes, apollo for lemmy on a fairphone would be the ultimate power combo
Slide for Lemmy. Idk i just for really used to Slide.
It’s not going to happen. People really need to let this go.
Yea.... Apollo and boost.... The are surely taking their time, aren't they??
Indeed👍
whisper "Buy tickets to 'Barbie'."
Bacon Reader for Lemmy.
I just want one of them to support kbin accounts :(
I gave up on that. Signed up to an instance that federates with kbin and use memmy
I’m typing this from a preview release of Artemis, a Kbin-compatible iOS app in development. It’s really good and going to get better over time!
Looks down at android phone.
0/2 :(
At least some devs are working on including kbin
It's also in testing on Android
oh yes don’t stop
Infinity for Kbin
Gal Gardot's vagina.
That kind of goes without saying. You probably shouldn't say it.
That’s the weirdest goddamn app name.
