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.
