wefwef is like Apollo-lite so it’s not surprising that it’s so popular. It follows much of the same design language but not quite as buttoned up or full-featured as the more mature Apollo.

It was an easy transition for me since I was an Apollo user.

“It follows the same design language” is an understatement. It’s a straight copy. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, though I have some questions with regard to Christian Selig’s intellectual property rights here, if any.

Is there a way to filter communities? That’s one piece I haven’t found but desperately miss.

My first thought upon loading wefwef was “I wonder if the Apollo guy is pissed.”

lol Christian probably doesn’t care; he hasn’t announced his own app, which makes me think he’s out of the game.

Yeah, definitely an attempt to copy. I agree.
