Alternative iOS apps for Lemmy? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I’ve been trying to use mlem now for about a week and I just find that it lacks a lot of very basic functionality. Don’t get me wrong, I understand it’s all new and everyone’s scrambling to build and improve, I’m not faulting the mlem devs here. But until things like copy/paste work and notifications exist, the mobile Lemmy site is better but also worse in many respects.

Are there any other iOS apps out there or under development that I should be on the lookout for?

EDIT: I've amended the title of the post to better reflect my intention here. Folks seem to be misunderstanding the intent here. I'm not blaming mlem, memmy or any other project out there for failing to create something "good". All these apps and the ecosystem are new and still rapidly evolving, I get that. I'm just trying to hunt around and see what's available that might not be listed on the official apps page yet.

I’m currently testing “Mlem” it’s ok so far in beta still.

Yeah, this is also my impression. It has a lot of potential but it’s not quite there yet. I plan to keep coming back to it after each update but I at least need copy/paste to work.

Really wish they would add in an alert tab to show any replies to posts or comments. I feel like I have to log back in on desktop to see if I should be replying to anyone. Slows down the discussion quite a bit.
