I only recently found out about rreading glasses which completely fixed the meta data issues. I hope they reconsider or someone else jumps in. I would if I understood any of this beyond a user level.

    Love the app!

    Going beyond Apollo, have you ever thought of adapting Voyager to work on Apple TV? Not sure how many this would interest but there’s a lack of Lemmy tv clients.

    I used a separate app that would notify me about Reddit posts in selected subreddits if they hit a upvoted or comment threshold. Could be a separate app or built into Voyager. Also helps you keep up with smaller communities if they get drowned out in the main feed.

    Sideloading apps on iOS has gotten a lot easier. I use sideloadly. It has to connect to your computer (wirelessly) once a week but does this automatically in the background. I’m still running Apollo, the best Reddit iOS app this way.

    I have YT premium through Sri Lanka for $3/mo. Sponsorblock works in safari.

    ROM apps like delta are in the App Store now. I have no idea about phone gaming otherwise.

    Never ran into any content filtering.

    If your gf uses iOS try it out there first and see how you like it.

    New iPhones release on a pretty strict schedule each September so even if you don’t want the new model best to wait for older ones to be discounted.

    Got the fork of prowlarr you recommended up and running but getting a timeout on adding ABB. Will try again later. For now, it is working in jackett again so that is a good temp solution. I will ideally have both running so there is a backup if one goes down later.

    One of my favorite Apollo features was I could be in the middle of a deep comment section. Swipe back to the homepage, then swipe over into where I left off in the comments. I believe this was handled by edge swipes vs swipes from not quite the edge for up/down votes. No idea how it remembered location.

    Love the app! Really made the transition to Lemmy much easier.

     

    As someone who aggressively adblocks everything, one of the final places that ads can still reach me is in annoying ad reads within podcasts. Youtube sponsorblock is incredible but it seems no one has yet adapted this for podcasts. Has anyone else managed to find a solution here? As far as i can tell in my googleing, this doesn't yet exist. Anyone else extremely interested in something that skips/removes sponsor segments from podcasts?

     

    While we try out reddit alternatives, why not try the open source reddit clone, lemmy. I honestly don't know a whole lot about the whole fediverse, only heard about mastadon vs twitter recently but I never used twitter and don't see a reason to start with mastadon. But the churning community is small enough and separate enough from main reddit, why not give it a try.
