Hello everyone, I recently started working on a Gtk client for Lemmy written in Rust, called Lemoa and the awesome Relm4 crate.

So far, it supports most of the basic things that do not require a login, like viewing trending posts, browsing communities, viewing profiles, etc... Login features are planned to become added within the next one or two weeks, so that Lemoa can be used as a replacement for the web UI on a desktop.

Screenshot of an example community page:

Id you want to feel free to already try it at "alpha stage" (installation instructions are in the Readme).

Feedback and any kind of contributions welcome!

PS: I'm sorry if that's the wrong place to post about it, I didn't know where else to.

Looks great. I'll give it a go.

Looks like we're having some issues for Ubuntu/Pop. https://github.com/lemmy-gtk/lemoa/issues/1

And

Compiling openssl v0.10.55
error: failed to run custom build command for `openssl-sys v0.9.90`

I tried the fix suggested - changing realm4 and realm4-components to 0.5.0 in Cargo.toml, but no real difference.

The person who made that issue got it to build in Docker https://github.com/lemmy-gtk/lemoa/pull/2. So it can work in Docker if you use Docker.

That issue doesn't mention openssl. Make sure you have libssl-dev installed. The issue is referring to a hard requirement for a newer version of libgobject-2.0, but that's something that either lemoa, relm4, or gtk-rs will have to resolve.

For now it's probably best to wait for the Flatpak release of this. Or perhaps they'll figure out a solution.

Yeah, I realized that was something different, but I thought there might be a general issue with Ubuntu because the dev builds on Void. And I was confident it was likely going to be a case of waiting for the pieces to come together better.

[–] mmstick 1 points 2 years ago

Void most likely has a newer version of GTK than Ubuntu 22.04 now, so that's probably why.
