A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Hi lemmings, I switched over from Reddit 10 days ago now but I couldn't find a mobile client that I was happy with with an experience similar to the Reddit experience I was used to. So I decided to build my own and I hope you will like it as well!

Play store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kuroneko.lemmy_connect

Features:

  • Material U
  • Dark and Light themes
  • List view / Card view / Fullwidth view
  • Filter lists for hiding posts
  • Multiple accounts + switcher across multiple instances
  • Guest accounts for viewing an instance without signup
  • Search and community autofill
  • Markdown support + attempt to navigate links correctly (/u/foo will open that user instead of browser kickout. Same for /c/, !, and @)
  • Saving posts
  • full sort types
  • NSFW view options (hide, blur, show)
  • copy text and url on all posts and comments
  • add comments, replies, and new posts
  • comment replies with line indicators

Here's other screenshots:

Future plans:

  • Improving the inbox
  • Swipe actions
  • Multi-~~reddit ~~communities

Thank you for taking a look. I hope others who are migrating from Reddit like me will find the app useful and I'd love to know your thoughts!

Edit: Community for the app is here: https://lemmy.ca/c/lemmyconnect

I'm very thankful to you! I wanted a nice app to browse lemmy and I found your app a couple of days ago! I've had a very nice experience so far

I'm able to sign in but no posts populate the feed. Also only a small amount of my subscriptions show up in the sidebar.

Have you considered creating a community for your app? Would make it a lot easier to follow development

[–] kuro_neko@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah I made one, it's empty right now but I'll post new releases + changelogs there. https://lemmy.ca/c/lemmyconnect

The screen shots look good. I'll download it and try it out. Let me know if you make a community for it so we can give back feedback on there. The more apps the merrier now that Reddit is getting rid of all them!

Maybe bug: in list view, the width of post title and content seems to be limited to around 80% of my screen width.

Suggestion: a setting that lets you set default sorting for comments would be great. So if I wanted post comments to be sorted by top by default, I could set that instead of needing to do it manually every time. Been looking everywhere for a Lemmy app that can do this, at least until the functionality is implemented into the site itself.
