Yes, it's yet another app for Lemmy.

Based heavily on the abandoned Lemmur project, with a few updates to make it run with the current API and some minor changes to the UI.

Written in Flutter, so although it's only available for iPhone and iPad right now, it does run on macOS and Android so releases for those platforms may be on their way.

I will be releasing the source once the app has gone through this beta testing phase.

Go and get it!

Let me know here of any issues or in the TestFlight build (long press on the icon). Once I've opened the source we can start using GitHub to track issues.

KNOWN ISSUES:

  • The app occasionally forgets who you are and mistakenly nags you to log in when trying to comment or vote.

Developers: interested in helping out? Experienced with Mobx, Provider and Freezed? Let me know!

Features:

  • Full featured for end users
  • Light Mode, Dark Mode, System Mode
  • Multiple accounts on multiple servers
  • Localisation (work in progress)
  • Full search support (posts, comments, users, communities)

@limboapp I'm struggling to add my vanity Mastodon instance. Is it supported?

Hi, I'm not sure I understand the question. It's specifically a Lemmy client so unless you're also running a Lemmy instance this won't do anything for you...

@limboapp Ah, sorry. I don't want to spin up my own Lemmy instance, and I use my Mastodon account to interact with Lemmy (yay Fediverse!)

What I'd like to do is easily comment/post on Lemmy instances with my Mastodon account. Right now it's a bit of a convoluted process that involves copying a URL from a Lemmy post, searching for it in Mastodon, and replying to the post I find in Mastodon.

I think you're waaay ahead of the curve here. It will be interesting to see what mind-blowing integrations people come up with hooking all these fediverse elements together, but for now I'm keeping the focus on getting up and running as a Lemmy client!
