This. Really just this. I like Voyager, and even Arctic, but this would be a nice option to have.
Mlem’s most recent update brings most of the features I used from Apollo.
My only remaining one that I miss is ‘Share As An Image’. It makes sharing content with people who don’t touch the Fediverse a lot easier.
I started with the memmy app and started using mlem simultaneously to see which I preferred. At the time, I was used to what Apollo offered. Once mlem got more updates and features I switched to it exclusively.
So far I can’t think of a single feature that’s “missing” for me, but then again I usually just do the most basic stuff on here: browse, like, save and occasionally comment. Definitely made the last two years a better experience.
Apollo, the app right?
How Have You Personally Dealt With The Loss of Apollo?
I did not, I just sideloaded Apollo and still am using the app.
I’m glad that exploit still works. Though it has a developer account upfront cost to access.

No, not entirely true (luckily). You can use SideStore or AltStore to sideload at least 3 apps freely. The “downside” is you have to refresh every 7 days.
The good side is; SideStore + LiveContainer allows for unlimited apps to sideload and there’s a shortcut to auto-refresh apps each day (so no worries about expiring apps).
However, it is true for most convenience, Apple developer certificate is still the best and usually costs €6-20 euro through third party seller (for one year).
However I’m in Canada. Sideloading isn’t allowed here yet by the government or Apple.
