Feedback and criticism is welcome and encouraged!

This is a small jetpack compose app that I'm currently making for android devices to browse... federated link agregators (Lemmy, kbin etc.).

I promise I'm not just bandwagon-ing. However, I thought that the current situation could make for a good excuse to learn android development/mobile design (something I've never actually done before).

Some notes:

  • This application will be open source. I think it's just a bit too early to share it right now. [^1]
  • Some icons are placeholders, e.g. "upvote" and "downvote" are upload and download at the minute.
  • Some of the padding and card-style is inconsistent in the mockups I've shared here.
  • There are quite a few "language-choice" issues. Most notably the vague term "Mods" on the profile page (this refers to the communities the profile moderates). I plan to adjust this through development (and as the mainstream fediverse establishes itself).
  • I'm doing this for selfish reasons like "fun" and "education", so there aren't any guarantees for a fully working... anything...
    • If I was to do this for altruistic reasons, I'd contribute to Jerboa which seems to be undergoing a lot of development from what I can tell on GitHub,

[^1]: If you're on the tildeverse, I've already open-sourced it to tildegit. I'm also tracking my progress over there: https://tildegit.org/delph.seiji/lemulink.

Did someone create already a library for Lemmy in Kotlin? I’ve seen a few pop up for Swift with most supported operations.
