Ok, I wasn’t sure to post this because I thought I’d look like a troll user but anyway.

I have been using this app recently and I’m amazed how well this works, I think it pretty much beats any Lemmy app for Android (the device I own) at the moment in design and stability (which is understandable since most of them are in alpha state).

I’m asking this because one of the reasons to have it as an Android app is that it could benefit from material UI and Monet icon (I really like those features) and many many other stuff (because I know not everyone is fan of those features).

What do you think? I’d personally love to see this as an Android or iOS app.

    wefwef is based on Ionic, which has support for material UI. In fact, it’s just a switch to turn it on. :)

    I just have to go through the app and clean up styling inconsistencies, but yeah, material design is totally doable!

    As for being on the app stores: That’s a big maybe, and also a very low priority at the moment. But Ionic does make this pretty easy as well.

    However, being a web app allows us some freedom to implement some cool features. For example, we could embed piped.video for ad-free, privacy respecting youtube videos in app. That would never fly in the app stores. It would also set wefwef apart from the native apps.
