The kbin/lemmy app is coming along. Here´s a little preview of the upcoming beta! Heavy inspiration from Apollo. The app will be available for both iOS and Android.
Discover the magic of the internet at Imgur, a community powered entertainment destination. Lift your spirits with funny jokes, trending memes, entertaining gifs, inspiring stories, viral videos, and so much more from users like Lilkevvv.
The dev, @hariette, also has a Mastodon profile where she posts updates https://tech.lgbt/@hariette. There is also a link to the apps discord server in her bio.
Every app that ever gets created for this will be called an Apollo “Clone” or “copy” and twenty years from now people will ask, “what was so special about Apollo”?
Needs an option to move the arrows to the right-hand side so I can scroll with my thumb and tap the arrows with the same thumb. Also, needs a light mode, quick account changing, and community muting for when browsing All.
I'm in the majority, but I don't even care if an app gets made (obviously I support it though). I used Apollo on Reddit, because Reddit's mobile design was complete shit. However, Kbin and Lemmy actually look great in a mobile browser, so I really have no need for a separate app.
Never used Apollo, but great news to have multiple ways to interact.
About the app being proprietary or open source it shouldn't matter. The foundation is federated community, the ways to interact can be federated too. Mix of open source and proprietary.
This is great, be able to access both Kbin and Lemmy from one app would be so much easier.
I know it's early days yet to asking about features but just wondered if you plan to have a built-in image/video/gif player so thay you don't have to external sites to view content?
What makes this different from/better than Jerboa? I'm a (soon to be former) Reddit Sync user and Jerboa's a little feature bare but it does everything I did on Sync.
