Summit - A Lemmy reader (play.google.com)

Hello! I recently just released a Lemmy reader app for open beta. I've been working on the app since the black out about a week ago.

The app is will very much a work in progress however the core reader functionality should be working. I will continue to work on the app and estimate it will likely like a month before all core features will be implemented.

That being said, I've been having a lot of trouble browsing Lemmy on web and I still think the app is an upgrade over the raw web experience.

If anyone is interested please give the app a try and let me know what you think!

Here's a quick demo as well: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/MMpMHwzTuII

Update

I started a community at https://lemmy.world/c/summit. I will try to post frequent updates there.

Damn, seem like a nice app. Coming from the Baconreader for Reddit app, this feels more familiar than Jerboa. It's also one of the fastest feeling apps on my Nokia 7.2 (which is getting quite slow in some apps). Not feature-rich enough yet to replace Jerboa, but I'm keeping an eye on it nonetheless

I love BaconReader to death, so you've just sold it for me. Gonna go try it.

Keep in mind that it's currently not really finished. It probably can't be your main app (yet)

[–] jake_eric 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, tried it and it's... very rough. Which is understandable, since it's new!

I'm using Jerboa right now, and I'll definitely try the app that the Sync for Reddit developer is making once that comes out. I tried a few Reddit apps too but I liked BaconReader the best, so I'll see what I like most for Lemmy once things settle a bit and the apps aren't so rough around the edges.
