I’m currently using Memmy for Lemmy, Mammoth and Ice Cubes for Mastodon, and the official Pixelfed beta.
Also using Insporation* for Diaspora, but I wonder if the devs have abandoned it. Wish there was a dedicated Friendica app as well.
What are you guys using primarily? I wouldn’t mind branching out a bit.
Voyager and Memmy!
iOS I’m bouncing around until one comes out on top. Memmy and Avelon are currently winning. Mlem, Bean, Thunder close seconds. Spend all my time on Lemmy. Couldn’t really get into mastodon.
Avelon is niiiiiice. Big fan of Voyager also.
Edit: Sorry, misread. It’s in TestFlight
Just trying Avelon out thanks to you — it’s fire. https://testflight.apple.com/join/IzB0ZiBO but definitely a big Voyager fan, too.
I cant get into mastodon for the same reason I cant get into twitter. Why people think this is great way to interact on any subject is beyond me.
First you need Testflight, which is an app you can use to test apps in development, even before they’re in the App Store. Then you come back to the message that you replied to and click open the Avalon app in the TestFlight app to accept the invitation to test it. Then you can install it from TestFlight.
Was using Memmy but switched to voyager recently and liking it a bit more, reminds me of Apollo. It’s still pretty early for all the apps though so I have a few and I check them occasionally to see how they improve.
Voyager 100%, nearly perfect PWA, great as a native iOS app too.
It stands for Progressive Web App. It allows websites to be treated as a standalone app without having to download it from a storefront. When done well, it’s hardly distinguishable from a proper native app. It’s a cost-efficient way to create a cross-platform app that works with basically any browser.
Thanks. I think I get it now. I have been using voyager, followed the instructions and always wondered how it installs despite not being on the appstore. From how you’ve explained it, it seems to be less taxing on the phones computing resources, right?
