Hey everyone! I wanted to give an update on the status of Memmy development since things have been slow recently.

Don’t worry, we haven’t just abandoned Memmy! There are a few reasons we haven’t really had many updates or progress recently. gk and I have both been a little burnt out after doing so much before. We didn’t really pace ourselves very well I think, so recently we’ve been taking a break. I’ve been addicted to Baldurs Gate 3 and gk is trying to get out of Gold Nova in CSGO 😏. Additionally, there was a lot of drama recently on lemmy that kind of left a sour taste in our mouths and has just led us to not using lemmy as much recently.

But don’t worry, we are still developing. We are actually working on a rewrite of the app, since we both were rather new to React Native when starting this, and have learned a lot of do’s and don’ts. We’re also planning on having Android support in the rewrite.

We appreciate the patience and support, thank you to all our users!

    Interesting. I saw it but it didn’t interest me. I tried Voyager and Thunder, which I didn’t like. It feels like every app out there tries to recreate Apollo in some way.

    Bean looks good. Agreed about the cost. Even Apollo was $10/year and I think $30/lifetime but you had the breadth of Reddit at your fingertips. Lemmy is light on content for now.

        I just started using it a few days ago and have been really impressed. Been Memmy, Bean, Voyager and Avelon there are some solid iOS apps. Looking forward to them all maturing but it’s promising so far.
