Feel free to download and test yourself by joining the TestFlight group.

Please leave feedback either here or on GitHub.
Note this is very much a work in progress still and this is very barebones. I plan to continue work and submit nightly builds on TestFlight, so be on the lookout for the new releases.
Happy scrolling!

This looks amazing!!
Are you able to convert into Android too??
I’m not the dev but I think that’s the intention based on the readme on GitHub.
It’s written in Expo/React Native which means it’ll be easier to support both iOS and Android.
Yup. I took it for a spin on a simulator and things are about 90% functional out of the box. There’s some weird scaling issues with the text, but I believe that to be the patchwork way I’m rendering the markdown right now. Once I finish the markdown parser it should be the same across both platforms.
As far as I know kbin doesn’t have API access enabled at the moment. They’re still trying to finalise how they do it. This means that apps can’t communicate with it just yet.
Feel free to try another instance as well such as https://lemmy.world
Thanks for the cross post! Please feel free to let me know if you guys run into any issues!
I was having such a good experience with Memmy I thought others should know about it too. The daily improvements have been amazing, keep up the great work!
I love it so far, better than mlem for me
Any particular reasons you like it better then Mlem?
Not him, but I like how stable it is compared to Mlem. But UX wise I still like Mlem better for now. But good to see two apps already like this, both really good so far.
Faster, smoother, clearly caches more aggressively so much less halting when scrolling, smaller fonts so more compact interface.
Both are so early in development though it’s basically irrelevant. Tomorrow Mlem could push a new build that includes their new interface that I’ve seen in the GitHub PRs and I’ll be back to that one. For now it’s just like Mastodon was, using all of the apps and seeing which one ends up fleshing out into a fully functional experience.
For me it’s the iOS 15 support, Mlem has targeted iOS 16 which doesn’t work on my 6s.
Always great to have more options! But this seems very similar to Mlem in terms of goals (Apollo like). Why not combine efforts?
Underlying technology is completely different. One is Swift, one is React. It talks about this on the GitHub.
This is one of those cases where two is better than one, because not everyone can contribute to a Swift app, and multiple projects isn’t splitting effort, it’s bringing on people who wouldn’t otherwise be involved at all.
Plus, probably worth having a few going just because there is so much activity now. Mlem is moving a little slower than I had hoped so while I’d prefer a native Swift iOS app, this one is already a little more functional and it’s the first release.
Those are some of the main reasons. Also, the fact that it can be easily released as an Android build as well is nice, especially for users who would want a more Apollo-like feel on android devices. I have not personally tested Jeroba, but from screenshots I have seen (while it does look great!) it doesn’t have the same look as some of the old Reddit apps.
Bottom line is this is a huge preference thing. I don’t want to take anything at all away from Mlem. If you know Swift and think you can contribute to that project then by all means you should! Looks like a great project. Glad that there’s so many people working on things for Lemmy already!
Because some of us saps don’t have a phone capable of iOS 16+ which is what Mlem is targeting. Memmy runs great.
Showing a lot of potential, already like what I see! Can’t login with kbin currently so just hoping that will change, otherwise I’d be commenting from there now :D
Swipe options nailed the bare-bones already and the right options in the right spots! I’d love to have share as the last option on swipe left. Also needs vibration when ‘unselecting’ (?) a swipe option.
Performance is already great, smooth and no crash yet other than when trying to login with kbin. Looking forward to seeing this grow!
Fixed the KBin crash.
Sharing I was thinking about having a little “…” at the top of the comment to offer an action sheet with sharing. But I like the swipe idea too. And of course the post share sheet will be there too.
Just tried logging into kbin and crashed during submission.
Although it should have been fixed to not crash (release was only just pushed though), it does not currently support KBin. I will look into implementing the API and support this. Might be a bit, since it will require actually writing an API wrapper (from what I have seen anyway), but that isn’t too much work. I’ll put it on the list.
Appreciated. Good luck with your development!
FYI, I don’t think kbin has enabled API access yet which is why apps won’t work with it
I just took a look at that, saw a lot of requests in TF feedback about it. I ran across something on GitHub. I’ll see how similar the two are and what could be done to offer a full integration in the same app. Not sure about this one yet.
Very cool. Posting from it now. Don’t like how the reply form takes up the whole screen. But given it’s v0.01 I’ll take these things in stride
While it does take up the whole view, I intend to have a few other buttons and things on screen. The comment that you’re replying to will be visible under the comment section, and there will be some buttons to easily add markdown to the comment.
I just installed and loaded it up. This looks like a fantastic start. I hope I can provide feedback as I use it more!
Just tested this. This app is AWESOME! Please keep working on it!! Will keep testing for bugs!
Edit: This is a cross post. I’m stupid lmao
Thanks for the feedback!
@[email protected] the lead dev is browsing this post so I’m sure he’s seeing everyone’s feedback.
Gonna give this app a try! Cannot see a clear search feature. Other than that looks very clean!
I have something in the works and should have it released today or tomorrow.
It looks great! I’m definitely taking it for a spin and will create an issue on GH if I find any.
Giving this a try!
Trying out now, it’s looking great for the first alpha release!
Using it now to post this comment. I’m really liking it, it’s very smooth. Wish there was compact view but I’m sure its coming soon. I might switch over from mlem
This is what I’m waiting for. I began to leave Reddit the day they blocked .compact.
Wonderful. Where can I donate?
And is there a memmy community?
If you do feel so inclined, theres a Buy Me a Coffee link on the GitHub. But it’s seriously no issue! I am just doing my part 🫡
Fuck /u/spez
Done! Thanks.
There’s a “Buy me a coffee” link at the bottom of the github page: https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy
[email protected] is the community.
Well that was easy. Just donated.
Thanks!
I created an issue on GitHub but I’ll comment here also - I can enter the server name but when I go to enter my username I can enter one character and then the cursor goes back up to the server box
Fixed now. Sorry about that :(
No problem at all! Thanks got the quick fix!
