Thank you! I wasn’t aware there’s already a post for this. I’ll add this link to the post.
Nice didn’t know thunder was also on ios
I am going to give wefwef a try. I was using Mlem at first but I wasn’t a fan. Still a bit worried about wefwef as I wasn’t a fan of Apollo at all but willing to try!
Thanks for putting together this list!
Unfortunately most of these are Apollo clones since it was very popular. I’d suggest Liftoff if you prefer a different thing. It uses a different design but still nice. Although I haven’t tried Thunder so I’m not sure about that one.
No worries, If I don’t end up liking this I have many options which is nice.
@thisisdee@lemmy.ml, this stickied post could probably use some love, or you might just want to remove the sticky pin. Some of these Apps no longer exist. Example: Memmy.
Thanks! I’ve updated it a little just by quickly going through the communities. Also lifted the link to lemmyapps up so users won’t miss it. Let me know if there’s anything I’ve missed!
Not able to connect to wefwef today. Says safari cannot establish a secure connection. Not sure if anyone else seeing this. On mobile.
Wefwef isn’t as stable as Apollo :/
It’s not wefwef but the instance you joined getting overwhelmed as people move to Lemmy (and particularly lemmy.world)
Aah that’s a good point.
Using wefwef right now, feels pretty good and not a change from Apollo. Looking forward to see its progress
Mlem has really come along the last few weeks — looks nice now. And definitely more of an Apollo vibe. I checked out of it (and left the TestFlight) once the dev announced it was abandoned but it’s clearly back now.
And I’m back to using it now since Memmy doesn’t support post deletions yet and a Lemmy server hiccup resulted in a double post. Solid app now

Wefwef and thunder. Thunder is really fast.
I love Memmy
Very impressed with wefwef. And somehow it’s the only client I’ve found that has swipe-to-fold-comments. A required feature IMO.
I wish we could configure the swipe gestures so that swipe left is to vote instead of now where its swipe right to vote.
Memmy and Thunder both have tap to fold and swipe to vote / reply as well.
This is the post we needed!
Are all these apps adding upvote/downvote systems? Cause I noticed lemmy on safari didn’t have voting but memmy and wefwef did.
Mostly when it was released or when I noticed it was released. It’s in no particular order
