Which apps are doing this by the way?
- Sync and Boost officially are.
  Infinity for Everything (Fediverse) is on GitHub.
  wefwef and Memmy are starting to feel like Apollo already.
  Connect seems to be inching closer to Relay with each update, and Jerboa gives off RiF vibes.
  People need to post about this on reddit more to perhaps encourage the other devs to do the same; might've actually worked for Boost cuz the dev didn't originally plan to port it to Lemmy it seems
  
  I'm using wefwef right now I'm honestly Impressed!
  
  Same. If this has the same icon as Apollo, I could have been fooled that I was still on Reddit.
  
  Wefwef is absolutely nuts as a PWA, was looking forward to Sync for Lemmy but as a former heavy iOS user this is so cool!
  
  Super excited for Boost!
  
  Do you have a link to the infinity for everything repository? I can't seem to find it
  
  This what you're after? https://github.com/everything-gripe/Infinity-for-Everything
  
  Here
  
  How's the infinity port on GitHub? I use infinity for reddit, would be nice to use the same here .
  
  Really excited about Infinity for Everything! I used Infinity for Reddit and it was hands-down my favorite app. Looks like the Everything version is still pretty early. Will be watching it closely.
  
  I would love to see them bring Sync and/or Boost to iOS with this, but I doubt it. But Wefwef and Memmy are great
  
  The developer of Sync is working on an app right now
  
  For iOS as well?
  
  Nope
- Boost is the one I'm looking forward to the most. Highly customizable and highly streamlined
  
  Boost is a legitimately perfect app for the format IMO. I'm so so so glad it's coming over
  
  It reminds me of when I used reddit on my iPhone with Alien Blue. Once I got an andriod phone it's the only app to feel similar enough to that
  
  I love Sync. Looking forward to seeing that one on Lemmy.
  
  Boost was the single app I used to browse Reddit on my phone for years! I can't wait for the new app to be ready
  
  Just added myself to the list to register when it's available. Boost was the only reason I was on Reddit.
- In addition to the others mentioned, someone is making an unofficial port of Slide.
  
  Hell yeah, it's the best reddit app hands down.
  
  There's an alpha already
  
  I can never click these links, I got a 404 community not found error.
  
  There's a possibility it's your instance. I saw something earlier about instances blocking traffic from other instances.
- Developer of RedReader also said they want to eventually support Lemmy and perhaps tildes and hacker news, even though RedReader got an exemption from the api fees for now. But as a "long-term vision", so probably not immediately.
- Sync, Boost are some of the apps I know
- this... this.. brings me memories... oh the reddit memories
