After Apollo for Reddit was wiped from the face of the earth together with most third party reddit clients, there has been an empty void as Apollo was pretty much the only social media app I used.
Downloaded and played around in Memmy for a bit and OMG this app is beautiful.
PS: Thank you so much for also being back the swipe to Upvote/Downvote feature. I discovered it on accident by muscle memory from Apollo 😏👌🏻
Using it to write this post! Overall not bad. A couple bugs to point out:
Posts/Edits just hang on loading wheel, eventually reporting a JSON parsing error, but refreshing feed shows post/edit went through. Even canceling loading wheel screen after a second shows it went through.
Cannot cause new alert bell to register read comments despite interaction.
I’m sure there’ll be resolved (or I’m missing something in regards to 2).
Glad to see Lemmy on my iPhone though. I don’t really care to interact with social media from my desktop.
Thanks for the awesome app!!
For #1 - that’s the instance lagging, this was happening to me on lemmy.world over the weekend constantly but when I switched to a not-bogged-down instance I haven’t had this issue. I think Gavin and the team are working on more clear error notifications to clarify what went wrong but that JSON error happens when the instance is straining.
At least for the comments thing I think you have to manually click the read button on the top right of your inbox page.
At least for now.
That solved that issue! Thank you!!
