I like Mlem because it's a native iOS app developed in Swift and SwiftUI for everyone to be performant, beautiful, and accessible!
But I'm on the Mlem Team, so maybe I'm a bit biased :P

Mlem is definitely one of the best I've tried! Great work guys!
glad you like it!
Is it only for IOS?
Edit: nevermind im am idiot who can't read
Your name is purple for me on Mlem
in Mlem, certain types of users have a modified username style. see if you can spot them all!
Much like Apollo!
I use Memmy and I love it, although it is still in Beta release and may not be able to join the beta. The dev is super good at improving it and fixing bugs
I'm currently trying both Mlem and Memmy, they are both great! I feel like Memmy have more features but the interface of Mlem feels more like Apollo (♥️).
Same boat. I think I’ll prefer Mlem in the long run but the Memmy dev is just cranking out updates like nobody’s business so it’s a lot more functional right now.
Yes currently the Memmy experience is more complete
Memmy is my favorite thus far, but Mlem isn’t far behind
Memmy for me too. Their philosophy is to make it operate like Apollo
There are a bunch of options each with their pros and cons, here’s what I’ve found so far:
Mlem
Memmy
Liftoff
Thunder
Personally I think I’m gonna stick with Thunder for a bit, but I’m swapping daily at this point.
Given that any development on these really only kicked into gear in the last few weeks everything these devs are doing is incredible, they’ve all come a long way in such a short time!
I can’t find a single one of those in the app store, all they all in beta or some developer mode?
On iOS you'll find them in TestFlight, for android on their githubs
They’re all in test flight, an online search will usually throw up their GitHub page with either a link to their lemmy communities and the TestFlight sign up page.
Just want to add my two cents here - https://wefwef.app is absolutely fantastic on both Android and iPhone and it's a PWA. It's better than any other client I have used (I have used most if not all available rn)
Just added it to my homepage. I’m surprised how good it is.
I’ll have to try it a bit more, but it might become my default until Mlem is more fully developed.
Glad to see this mentioned here. Wefwef is fantastic and not enough people know about it. It's the client that made me really dive into lemmy.
I just added it to the home screen, and so far, it's my favorite between Mlem and using the default web interface. Thanks for mentioning it!
Overall it's pretty good, but it doesn't support the android back button which is really annoying. If you hit back it just closes the app.
The latest deploy respects android's back button! Might have to force close the app/site a couple times to see the newest version. Sorry about that. Haven't tested Android until today 😅
Currently using Mlem and Memmy, but been finding myself using Memmy more often. I prefer the brown theme over the completely black/dark theme. Still some quirks to fix but the UI reminds me of Apollo so far.
Excited to try out Artemis since I also have a kbin.social account.
I’m using Memmy and Mlem. So far I’m liking Memmy a bit better because I think it has more features (though part of that is likely just me being an idiot and missing things in plain sight). I feel like Memmy is easier to navigate, and it displays useful post/comment information better. That said, there are definitely a few things that make more sense on Mlem. I also really like how close Mlem is to Apollo. Right now, they’re both fairly buggy in their own ways (Mlem more than Memmy), so I just use whichever one has the feature I need at the time.
Imo, Memmy is fantastic.
Wefwef (https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef) is worth a look. It’s a PWA that is very similar to Apollo in looks. Pretty amazing what’s been done in a PWA
Using Mlem. Ilike it so far, but I'm new to Lemmy and everything.
Liftoff is really good http://lemmy.world/c/liftoff
I really like the look of Liftoff but I can’t seem to interact as well with other instances it keeps saying I need accounts on other instances which seems to defeat the point of federation. Anyone else had this issue?
Same for me, even searching only allows you to chose from a dropdown with your instances only. So no good for me but a shame because it's a very good one !
I’m loving Memmy. Mlem is also very good
I am alternating between Mlem[0] and wefwef[1] as I want to fill the void that Apollo has left.
I use Mlem for the fluidity (though it still has a lot of stuttering, but really good for a pre-release) and interactions (e.g., swipe to previous screen, vibrations).
I use wefwef for its support for messages and closer UI parity to Apollo.
Having said that, I am open to using a better/alternative UX and will start experimenting when these apps have their releases on the App Store.
So far, I’ve tried Mlem, Memmy and Limbo.
I am liking Memmy the best!
I’m using Memmy more than Mlem as I like the look and gestures better plus the “me” and “OP” tags are an improvement over Apollo’s (which is saying something). I’ve been contributing to the github on missing features. Also added the wefwef PWA as it’s messaging is good (Memmy’s isn’t complete yet). Although, Liftoff’s is feature complete from what I can tell.
The speed at which Lemmy clients have been developed is insane. Very impressed with the communities at work.
I am currently using a PWA of discuss.tchncs.de because they have a sort by top of the hour, six hours, and 12 hours, which is awesome
