I’m just going to add that the web ui on mobile is great. Good enough that I’ve stopped using mlem. Mlem doesn’t show you the different instances that users and communities are coming from which doesn’t really matter for users but is super annoying for communities, and the main dev said that’s intentional.
It also shows you your “karma”, through what I’m assuming is just adding up the raw up/downvotes your posts/comments have accrued. Seeing that is what ultimately made me bounce, it seems like the complete antithesis of what Lemmy is trying to be about.
Also, while they’re working on adding a NSFW blur, it doesn’t exist yet and fuck seeing all that loli ai porn on my feed. I don’t mind having to scroll past stuff I’m not interested in, but come on at least blur it.
Finally the web ui has the rainbow indent lines, while there’s nothing but whitespace to indicate child comments on mlem. I’m sure they’ll fix most of the stuff up given time, but I’m not using it until they dump the cumulative karma tracking.
I had attempted to begin contributing code and those things left a sour taste in my mouth too. Ultimately I think wait until another open source option comes along and see if I can help at all.
Mlem kept crashing for me this morning so Ive stuck with the web ui for now as well. I personally like the web ui more but hope mlem gets better soon. (stability and ui wise)

Also you can’t block communities on Mlem, which is really annoying if you don’t want to see all the yiff content

It looks like someone else is creating a client, memmy. https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy
No releases as of yet though so can’t comment on that.
According to the GitHub page it’s heavily inspired by Apollo, so that’s got me quite excited.
Pass lol
