    I’ve been using WefWef today as it’s based off of the Apollo app UI, and apart from a couple of bugs/wants, its been great so far 👍

      I’ve seen that but it seems to be struggling with it’s popularity! It’s self-hostable, I wonder if it’s the sort of thing you could run a version of for the instance. E.g. wefwef.lemmy.nz could be a wefwef frontend that prioritises the lemmy.nz page for logged out users, but otherwise works the same.

      Edit: I went and did it, you can now access wefwef.lemmy.nz

        That’s pretty cool! Total noob is this regard so I probably wouldn’t have even been able to do it myself haha

          The basics of self-hosting stuff is pretty simple once you get used to it. But it is one of those things that you need a high tolerance for frustration because you will spend hours banging your head against the wall wondering why something isn’t working, then either you realise you made a silly mistake, or it suddenly starts working and you have no idea what changed to make it work.

              You’re talking about wefwef still?

              The main reason is that this afternoon I wasn’t able to access wefwef.app half the time, it was giving me errors. I presume because the server couldn’t handle a sudden surge in popularity.

              Other than getting ourselves a version we host ourselves so has a lower server load, I don’t think there’s any other benefit.

          Haha wow, I thought “I only did it an hour ago, how could it not be the most recent!” But then I see 0.6.0 was released 15 mins ago. I’ll update it :)
