@aeharding nice! Now I know what you do for fun!

This post should have 2120 updoots ☠️🎺

My first post post Apollo shutdown and am really happy with wefwef! Feels very familiar, and I’m actually excited for a fresh start getting away from the dumpster fire Reddit has become. Happy to be here!

This is amazing! Loving it so far. When theming gets more sophisticated, would love a compact mode with text titles only, no image!

is there a way to set up “multireddit” feeds like you could with apollo?

I’m actually amazed how amazing this PWA feels to use. I’ve always been critical on web apps and preferred native apps, but wefwef absolutely surprised me.

@aeharding Is there a reason why the colours for up- and downvotes are inverted? It keeps throwing me off, especially because everything else looks exactly like it did on Apollo.

Also, would it be possible to add those tiny vibrations when you swipe do up-/downvote? I have swiped too far a number of times now and accidentally downvoted on first try because there is no haptic feedback.

Regardless, I love wefwef so far, thank you so much for your work!

I would love a version of “compact” that hides all thumbnails. It makes for an even more compact list of text rather than dedicating space for a square thumbnail, many of which are just empty because they are text posts and/or just outward going links, and I do enjoy the visual cleanliness that comes from not having a variety of different squares of colors against a black background lining the right side of the text.

Thanks for all the hard work on this!

Hi is there a way to customize gestures?

Would it be possible to modify the sorting feature so that it isn’t universal? In Apollo, unless I’m misremembering, I’m fairly certain the sorting would default back to a set sorting function, usually Hot or whatever the equivalent was. It might’ve been a setting called default sorting method, again my memory is hazy and I can’t exactly go check. I digress. This was convenient bc oftentimes when someone sorts by Top, Active, or Controversial it is only for the given instance they’re currently viewing, and they intend on viewing a specific sorting method generally while otherwise browsing. It would be nice as at least an option, if possible to implement easily.

Hey, out of curiosity, how do you host the official instance? Is it just running on a VPS or some other static site host?

I ask because I’m the dev of another alternate web UI (but for desktop) called Alexandrite, and I’m hoping to refactor and move Lemmy API calls from the server to the client in the near future to avoid scaling issues with rate limits and I’m just exploring my options for hosting if I were to not have a hard dependency on SSR.

Apologies if this is the wrong thread to ask but is there an issue with the app at the moment? Thought it might be my account so I signed out but even as guest I’m getting this error as attached

if an app is released, please add a function in the android version to switch between android and ios theme

Im actually shocked at how well this works! Never expected a Webapp to be this great! Do you plan to make a native app for iOS at some point? I mostly ask because a lot of my favorite features from Apollo (widgets was a big one, FaceID, lockscreen widgets) are afaik only possible through native right? I would love to see stuff like that in the long run here too!

Regardless, this is really an awesome PWA and I can’t wait to see what you do with it!

How do i self host and how do i get updates directly from you so my instance can stay updated? also do i need to upgrade my vps or will it just be me on the self hosted wefwef PWA or something?
