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).

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!

[-] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago

old.lemmy.world would be hilarious given that lemmy.world is only one month old

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.

[-] mrpibb@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Wow that’s cool! 🤞for old.Lemmy.world

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I wonder when the same happens with a project for new.lemmy.world xD

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.

[-] lauha@lemmy.one 23 points 10 months ago

Oh, that's why the interface felt so weird.

It's a great app but the iOS interface is keeping me from really using it. It just doesn't feel natural on Android.

[-] dudebro@lemmy.world 38 points 10 months ago

Oh, thank god they changed the name.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago

also if your account isn’t on lemmy.world

To clarify, the login details only go through your server, right?

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!

[-] damnYouSun@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago

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.

What a great idea! My favorite app paired with my favorite instance is a match made in heaven! lol. Thanks Ruud!

[-] BadaBing@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] GnothiSeauton@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

It will start to stabilize eventually, but we're probably not going to see that anytime soon!

[-] sphred5@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

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.

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.

What is the difference between wefwef and m.lemmy.world?

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 29 points 10 months ago

btw, wefwef is called Voyager now.

Just because it had to be more confusing 😅

Sorry!

[-] CrypticCoffee@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Interesting. Seems the name was the worst thing about it. It put me off.

wefwef is an app, a webapp. Usually reachable under wefwef.app
You can install it as a progressive webapp through your browser.
This now is rehosting the files of wefwef on the m.lemmy.world domain, basically a fork that promises to keep in sync with the official codebase and the official domain. ~~The m.lemmy.world domain shouldn't need any connection to lemmy.world, it is basically not much different to a filehoster that hosts an apps apk~~. That is why I don't think m.lemmy.world even sees your credentials if you log in anywhere.

As to why, I'm not sure what the use of this is. Maybe in case the official domain goes offline?

[-] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

That's because when you use wefwef through wefwef.app, your data goes through wefwef.app before going to the instance, the app AFAIK does not communicate directly with the instances yet. You basically have to decide whether you trust wefwef.app enough to proxy your data through them.

Using m.lemmy.world would mean your data goes through lemmy.world directly, which you already chose to trust.

[-] G0FuckThyself@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Okay what If I am already using wefwef than my data is already passed through wefwef, so there is no benefit now? or still I should logout with wef wef and use m.lemmy.world?

Oh, you are almost right, I was wrong. Checking the network traffic it seems images (and some parts of posts?) are fetched directly, but other elements are fetched through wefwef.app, namely everything that needs the users session. maybe this is done to process some lemmy outputs serverside into for example the notification icon? This surprised me, I was confident the only requests to wefwef.app would be static elements and the code itself.

[-] aeharding@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This is to get around CORS. @ruud@lemmy.world just fixed CORS on lemmy.world 15 minutes ago (things move fast on Lemmy, lol) so I'll push an update to direct connect for lemmy.world tonight!

Edit: done ✅

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.

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 10 points 10 months ago

Sweet! I've been doing the same for a week or two at https://app.thelemmy.club

I just disabled the "other" login feature so it only works on thelemmy.club

[-] ThisIsNecessary@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I have already been using Voyager, do I need to do anything different since my account is on lemmy.world?

[-] PriorProject@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

It's nice to see this officially hosted for lemmy.world users. 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.

@sunaurus@lemm.ee could we get this, please? It would be so nice!

You can use vger.app, which is exactly same app.

Does it update at the same cadence as the original?

[-] ruud@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

Currently I need to manually update the container but I might install watchtower

[-] jaackf@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Yeah I just installed watchtower and that sorted out the updates

@ruud@lemmy.world, @aeharding@lemmy.world, @stux@geddit.social - Are there any instructions on how to set this up for my own instance? 😁
