Developing this app has been one of the best development experiences I've had, and I feel very privileged and happy to have been able to contribute to Lemmy in this way. Nothing is more motivating than seeing so many people already enjoying the app and providing suggestions and feedback.
I really hope you enjoy Avelon, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what everyone thinks. Keep the feedback coming!
Thank you, Sigve Rokenes
Looks great. I’ve downloaded it and look for to trying it out and seeing how it compares to Memmy.
If it’s better than Memmy let me know
I use both and I prefer Avelon most of the time. It's sleeker and more responsive, probably because of the native code.
Wait, is Avelon based on Swift?
Yup, native Swift app
Thanks I installed it now Memmy has some potential but honestly it was a bit glitchy
As per the other comments, seems super responsive, very Apollo like interface as well. Definitely worth experimenting with.
Memmy and Bean set the bar for iOS Lemmy apps, at least to me. Excited to see how Avelon stacks up.
Currently I’m personally using voyager, have used memmy till…. Two days ago when I found out about voyager lol. Will now try out this ine
