I’m building it using the latest and greatest Apple tech. Only available for iOS 17 😈
I’ve been using Mlem via TestFlight. It’s solid. My only gripe is minor. I see a large amount of duplicate posts across different Lemmy instances. For example, Beehaw’s c/technology and Lemmy.world’s c/tech often have the same content posted. My guess is it’s the nature of federated content. It’d be very impressive if you find a solution to consolidate duplicate posts from Lemmy instances.
Mlem is Ok, but still lacks way too man QOL features. I found Memmy as well, which is a bit newer, but also seems to be way more polished already, and the dev does updates almost daily. Already has listed communities, search, a working feed that doesn’t duplicate, and blurred NSFW.
It does this already. When there are multiple posts with the same link they are grouped together and you can choose which one to enter when you navigate to the comments. Still experimenting with it
This is still very much a work in progress. I’ll be looking for beta testers soon so keep an eye out if your on the iOS 17 beta
Isn’t it iOS 17 currently in beta? Or are you planning to launch next year?
Final public iOS 17 release will be in September with public betas starting next month. I didn’t want to architect a new app on top of technology that will be stale & require rework in 3 months. I wouldn’t expect the app to be ready for full blown public release too soon before then anyway. I’ve only been working on it for a week. Still have a lot of work before it’s stable enough for a release.
Feature request: When you tap someone’s user name, it shows clearly which instance they are on e.g. @nevird@beehaw.org on top (pretty standard) But then when, you click on the instance part of the user name, it brings you to the about page of that instance.
It’s a good idea. The problem is the “hitboxes” if you will are very small there. I’ll see if I can come up with a good way to do this
Please support iOS 15 users on older phones. apollo still do
A light theme is also much appreciated!
Android hamburger menu doesn’t feel right in a native iOS app
It’s not really a hamburger menu that’s just the icon I chose to use. it works the same way Apollo does.
Looking clean and sleek matey!
Among what everyone else is saying. Customizable color schemes! If I could browse Lemmy with a solarized dark-esque color scheme, I may actually cry…
Oh 100%! I plan on a user-submitted theme gallery along with completely customizable color options so you can set your own colors too
Awesome work! Do you have a name for your app already, something like Xeno Blue?
Working title is Olympus. I already bought the domain so hopefully nothing better comes. The long term goal is to support multiple platforms like kbin & mastodon and possibly (optionally) Reddit
