Voyager, aka ‘wefwef.app’, just hit 1.0
This is a project that makes me really interested in what I can do with a PWA.
(It’s an Apollo-esque (an iOS app for Reddit) progressive web app for Lemmy, and it kicks ass so far.)

I’m using it right now and, after trying 4 different apps, it’s my favorite Lemmy app so far
I bounce between Memmy (also Apollo-esque) and Voyager. I think Voyager is better, but there is something about a native app experience that isn’t 100% mimicked by a PWA. It’s hard to put my finger on exactly what it is. Don’t get me wrong, for me Voyager’s PWA is 99.9% there, but I can “feel” the difference.
Having said that, as an engineer, I appreciate and respect the PWA’s portability trade off. I can have the same Lemmy browsing experience on any computing device using Voyager. And it’s a really good experience. I don’t miss Apollo or Reddit anymore!
Well the good news is that Voyager will be hitting the App Store soon as a native app!
I can’t wait to see it!
Source on that? I’d love to follow that!
