I know there are a ton of iOS apps for Lemmy. But what are they missing? What experiences would you like? It could be quality of life or big and ambitious features Many of you often have really good ideas and feedback, I’m looking forward to responses.

safari is just konqueror with more steps and a bit worse though
and apps are a much better experience on mobile than web clients, and I don’t see much reason to not use then when most of them are free software.
also web apps are bloated af and actively create ewaste. Lemmy’s one’s not too bad but Reddit, Microsoft, Google’s sites make me want to do a skydive without a parachute
You’re quite right. If the website works well on a mobile, you don’t need an app. However a lot of the fediverse is built in such a way that it really sucks in a mobile browser.
Here are the stats: which fediverse platform works best in a mobile web browser.
Piefed looks really promising!
piefed has quickly become my main threadiverse driver. its really nice
Although you are right, apps, in my opinion, smooth over the rough edges of a website, and do so in a way that easy for the average plebeian to access. Sure, I could figure out how to make lemmy.world look and act how I want, I just don’t have the time, knowledge or patience to do so. So I use Memmy.
But you are completely correct.

I have an app for my fucking toothbrush. Not everything needs an app.
I don’t understand, they’re almost the same thing.
I agree with you on this much of the time. Especially on sites today that have ads. The fediverse doesn’t have that problem.
But the mobile web interface isn’t that great yet for Lemmy. Pixelfed’s web interface is so good I debate whether or not to use an app but Lemmy isn’t there yet.
