      My understanding is that Beehaw is just an instance that can be logged into? I’m logged into my Beehaw account on Jeroba for Lemmy right now which was the only account I was able to figure how to login to, as I have a kbin as well.

      If you’re talking specifically about something for Beehaw, I’m not sure, but it seems what I’m using is in line with Beehaw’s rules - downvoting disabled is applied.

      There’s a small server maintainence popup but it hasn’t noticeabley affected anything, and it seems it’s being worked on.

      Sorry if this wasn’t what you were looking for!

      As others have said, you can log in using any general Lemmy app. However, you can also use specifically Beehaw (or any Lemmy instance like sh.it or world) as a Progressive Web App (PWA).

      If you’re on iOS, go to the site on Safari (other browsers don’t work) and in the browser options select “Add to Home Screen”. The page from Safari will appear on your home screen like any other app. Not sure how it works on Android but I imagine the process is similar and involves using Chrome.

      Navigating it is easy enough, tap posts to load them and swipe left-to-right to go back one “layer”. You do need to make a PWA for every Lemmy instance you use, however. If you use a standard app, you can use the one app for all your instances. I haven’t found a good app on iOS yet, so PWA it is for me!

      This is also how I got over the urge to go on Reddit. I simply replaced Apollo with Beehaw’s PWA so if I feel the Reddit urge, I end up on Beehaw instead.
