One of the developers of Memmy

Dragon age 2 was insanely fun to me, i definitely played it more than origins. (Im aware I’m not in the majority with that) I thought the combat was so fun and i loved doing different play throughs with different builds in that game

It's not like electron or something. Sure metro works similarly to webpack, but it's not the same basic web technologies as wefwef. RN runs on threads on your device, a main thread, js thread and shadow thread. The js thread talks to the main thread through a bridge. React Native allows us to work and interface with native APIs with the device, while PWAs does not do that. PWAs don't do that on your phone, it's just like running on Safari really. While the code itself isn't "native" we end up with native components through the bridge. (If all of RN was just a webview then it would be more like how you're describing.)

The way RN works is fundamentally different than React, despite the syntax looking similar and RN being written in JS. It's not like its just React bundled up into a mobile app. I often wish they hadn't named it React Native for this reason, and for having to look up stuff and just getting React answers all the time lol. I am one of the Memmy devs and I am a React developer professionally. FYI this is not in any way a diss at wefwef for not being native, its super super impressive what they've done, I'm sure I could learn a lot about React from their code. Also sorry about the disjointed thoughts, I'm sure I repeated some stuff here or there lol. Hope this clarified a bit how RN works though.

Also since most other people aren’t using encrypted email, you kinda don’t really benefit from the Proton encryption afaik. I personally don’t understand the point.

The fact that the google form is acting for any personal data is bad enough, but the fact that you are asking for that much personal data is really bad man. I don't know why you want to collect so much user data, that's a bad look for your app. I recommend if you really want to have some sort of google form to control test flight access, just ask for an email (but not even the apple id email) and thats it and just email a join link to that.

I like Alexandrite so far

We probably will move it to Appearance. Honestly not sure how i feel about the settings layout in general.

One of the Memmy devs here - We don't support kbin (they don't have an API). Did you have issues with signing into any Lemmy instances specifically?

Oh yea you might get some issues with beehaw because they are defederated from other instances. Glad you are enjoying the app and figuring out the fediverse though! :)

Glad it was helpful!

I have a couple slings that i really like for this

I assume some since i assume gmail scans my inbox to serve me ads. But you’d get other ads from browsing history etc still. But Fastmail does the same thing i believe
