If you choose the app first, and you choose Voyager, everything else - browsing, creating an account - is intuitive and just works.

Even though it's first on the list when searching on the iOS Appstore I didn't choose it because the icon looks... well stupid.

I tried out it and Jerboa on Android (from F-Droid) and besides for not showing user PFPs, Voyager is generally better.

Yeh don't choose that one, just sign up on desktop and use Jerboa ngl the reason techbros win is most normies do not want agency, they want to turn their brain off and scroll whatever the algorithm serves up as they do.

Technology Connections made a good video on this recently but I fear his plea will fall on deaf ears.

Just like this article, no one's actually denying anyone the fediverse, we are literally right here.

For the uninitiated it’s basically a 1:1 clone of Apollo for Reddit. Hell, even the app’s name is derivative!

That said it’s still one of the best Lemmy apps for iOS and is a testament to Christian Selig’s original vision.
