We’ve installed Voyager and it’s reachable at https://m.lemmy.world, you can browse Lemmy, and login there (also if your account isn’t on lemmy.world)
PS Thanks go out to @stux@stux@geddit.social , he came up with the idea (see https://m.geddit.social).

Gotta say, it’s weird seeing a iOS interface on an Android device XD, but it feels very smooth and polished, especially for a web app.
Oh, that’s why the interface felt so weird.
Did it feel weird? I had Apollo when I was on iOS and I felt it pretty great.
Yeah we know that (almost) everyone who used iOS had Apollo, it’s been kind of obvious with the barrage of comments. However, there’s no Apollo for android and tbh I kinda hate the iOS feel it has, so if someone says that it feels/felt weird, chances are that they are an android user.
That’s what I’m seeing, honestly to me it looks and behaves great, the only downside is that it is a PWA and it doesn’t feel as fast and polished as stock apps.
And that’s because you used Apollo. The context of this particular chain is that it felt weird for android users, because it has an iOS feel, and they answered that that’s why it felt weird, so it’s impossible that they used to use Apollo, since they were an android user.
I am not used to Apple interface so it was just clunky and weird, yes
As a iOS user, same could be said about Android. It looks bad and is unintuitive to use for me. It’s about ecosystems and people getting used to one thing over the other!
Definitely. Personally Liftoff is the client I am currently using and liking.
I’d say weird, clunky I don’t think so.
It’s a great app but the iOS interface is keeping me from really using it. It just doesn’t feel natural on Android.
This is a great idea, Voyager’s mobile experience is super polished.
Long shot, but would it be possible to get Mlmym installed at old.lemmy.world? Would be a fun throwback!
Ohhh… maybe…
old.lemmy.world would be hilarious given that lemmy.world is only one month old
you might aswell go crazy and do LemmyBB too https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmyBB
Wow what a throwback just looking at the pics!
This would be incredible. I’ve already been directing other redditors here with a screenshot of the mlmym front end.
Let’s be careful with having too many frontends though. Are we sure it underwent proper security audit? Even lemmy-ui hasn’t yet and it was a victim of an embarrassing XSS attack.
Wow that’s cool! 🤞for old.Lemmy.world
I wonder when the same happens with a project for new.lemmy.world xD
Nice idea! Just stole that xd 🤦 Here’s old.lemy.lol!
Are there any instances with that front end deployed rn?
PLEASE
This would be amazing.
That’s nice!
Oh, thank god they changed the name.
Voyager is, by far, the best lemmy experience I’ve tried. Hiding posts is a godsend. And they did all this as a web app?? Impressive!
And they did all this as a web app??
A lot of things that used to require native apps Android/ iOS / Windows / Mac can now be done as a web app which is easy because it means you don’t need to compile the code four times.
Does anyone know how the hiding is implemented?
Will they still be hidden if I look at lemmy through my instance directly?
It is not connected to the Lemmy account… I used their URL “vger.app” at first, but then lemmy.world implemented it themselves. When I logged in over that URL, I had to “rehide” the topics.
Sorry, I don’t know the specifics.
It was working great yesterday and earlier today, but now when I am on there it shows me as logged out, and then when I log in it says it’s successful, but then shows me as logged out still. They keyboard is also not working when trying to enter my user name, I had to paste it.
There’s ongoing Lemmy.world authentication issues. Should be resolved once Ruud gets online.
I’m having lots of problems too. Even native client apps are giving me trouble. Must be lemmy.world having issues.
Its lemmy.world They updated the version to 0.4.2 today and were getting issues. Join a different instance
I am using connect for Lemmy and I cannot login either, so I think is an overall problem
Same here. I swear lemmy.world is the most problematic instance I am encountering so far.
Join another instance. I was on lemmy.world but now jumped to aussie.zone and everything is the same after subscribing to the communities.
Aaannnnddd I’m back. Was on wefwef but went to Jerboa and then connect. But I think I’ll stay at voyager as it’s definitely the most polished so far.
If you had an iPhone, Apollo (the app that Voyager is inspired from), that is how you’d feel about the iOS Reddit apps.
That app and this web app truly make the experience better, and what’s nice about voyager is the fact that it is a web based app so the experience is coherent between
devicesdevices :)
I have already been using Voyager, do I need to do anything different since my account is on lemmy.world?
You can login using your lemmy.world details on Voyager
I can already login to lemmy.world using Voyager though
looks like you’re sorted then?
What a great idea! My favorite app paired with my favorite instance is a match made in heaven! lol. Thanks Ruud!
also if your account isn’t on lemmy.world
To clarify, the login details only go through your server, right?
I’m fairly sure Voyager is a fully client-side app that can use the API from any instance directly no matter where it’s hosted. Someone correct me if I’m wrong
The devs themselves said they need to proxy information including password through their servers due to how cors works. But people are saying that this may be resolved somehow, so idk.
As a dev of a web Lemmy client, this was fixed in Lemmy 0.18.1, a proxy is no longer necessary.
Okay. I’ve seen someone mention that it’s not needed, but nobody seemed to care about the whole problem to elaborate. Thx.
Anyone else unable to update to 0.19/0.20? I’m on 0.18.2 and the updates aren’t showing.
For this installation, I think the Admin needs to run the update manually, until he gets around to automating it.
I was unable to update from like 0.14.* to 0.18.* or some similar difference of versions, deleting the cookies helped me actually. Might want to try that.
Unfortunately this didn’t work. I can’t use this website until updates are implemented the same way.
0.18.2 is the most recent version…
That would be 0.20
I just now realized I got Voyager and Lemmy versions confused. You are right about 0.20 being the most recent voyager version.
It’s nice to see this officially hosted for
lemmy.worldusers. I’ve been curious about wefwef but there was no way I was going to enter my creds into a third-party proxy. It feels much better to do so via an instance hosted by the world admins where my Lemmy account is though.FYIW, when you save this as a PWA via Firefox mobile, the name is just “voyager”, which I assume makes it hard to distinguish from the voyager instance hosted by its devs. I don’t think this can be changed as a user (unless I’m too dumb to figure it out). If the PWA app name can be changed server side, might be good to call it Voyager World or something.
Problem is deeplinks such as https://m.lemmy.world/post/1291838 don’t work
They do work but they’re structured differently: https://m.lemmy.world/posts/feddit.de/c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world/comments/1477069
Edit: Nevermind. Voyager seems to handle their route state in a weird way. Refreshing this while logged in works while the link does not work for third parties.
So… They don’t work?
It works if you’re logged out. If logged in, all requests must be proxied through your own instance, and post IDs vary per instance.
In the future, it might not force a redirect and show you content for a logged out/“roaming” state, but not now
Updated to .22
I think this was the ddos attack lemmy.world was experiencing
While I do love the quick innovation and updates of Lemmy, I have to admit that it’s a bit confusing and hard to keep up with.
It will start to stabilize eventually, but we’re probably not going to see that anytime soon!
@sunaurus@lemm.ee is this something you’d consider for lemm.ee?
you can log into lemm.ee through this website!
True but my login info would be stored in lemmy.world and not my home instance.
