because it’s not a blatant clone, and it’s a native app. I’m sure it’s good but i don’t want to go via safari every time i access Lemmy and it’s just a copy of apollo.
Huh that’s interesting, it’s waaaayyy faster than Memmy for me. I know what you mean about glitchy. Annoying, but that’s the WebKit bug, and I’ve learned to just wait a second before scrolling down the feed after returning from a post. I don’t even think about it anymore, but I could see how that could bother some people.
There are many, depending on your point of view. Voyager PWA is nice because when you dismiss it, it can’t run on its own in the background like a traditional app can, so I prefer PWAs over true apps whenever possible for this specific reason because I can control when the app is using the internet. If Voyager were an actual app, it could connect to my instance when it’s not running or it’s dismissed when I don’t want it to, like when I’m not on my VPN, for example. PWAs have no access to your contacts and other things that apps request (or sometimes demand) access to, not to mention the info Apple or Google provides to app developers when you agree to an app’s EULA. I could list a whole bunch of reasons

Voyager (wefwef) is better because PWA
And because its UI is a million times better. I don’t understand how people could see them both and go with Memmy.

I don’t see how it being a clone is a negative. All I want is Apollo, and this is pretty damn close, so I’m happy. But to each their own!
Also the gestures are kinda glitchy and is slow compared to memmy.

I use wefwef and it’s my first time learning about memmy.
What are the advantages of PWA?
I like wefwef but the scrolling does get me from time to time.

It’s also cool how it can update frequently and fast. It seems to get small updates most days right now.
And you know no App Store added any code to the app. The benefits are countless
All I’m missing is push notifications

I’m not seeing it in my settings and haven’t received the prompt but here’s hoping it reaches me soon!
Wish I knew why. Good luck and update your device
My main issue with wefwef is that I can’t directly save an image to the camera roll
Works fine for me. Did you deny it some permission somewhere?
This is not an issue for me
Although that has its benefits, it still has scrolling issues for me :/
This could be for many different reasons like older hardware or a less powerful video card in your mobile. Android or iOS?
I have scrolling issues on voyager as well on my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I’m sure it will get better with time. This bug has also been a major nuisance.
Yeah, that sounds frustrating. I’m lucky I’m on an older model iPhone that runs Voyager as well as it did Apollo. All in time
