Limbo. It's another app for Lemmy.

Hi All,

It has been a crazy few days as I've been trying to keep up with all your great feedback about the app.

When it was pointed out that there was another app in development using the same codebase, I was really interested to see how they were progressing, and in discussing our two projects we very quickly realised that we could move so much faster if we joined forces.

So we've just announced our new combined app Liftoff!

We've brought together the best parts of both projects and have opened up the source for the project for your inspection and contributions.

We will be using GitHub for logging issues, and I will ensure over the next couple of days that all the points that have been raised here or through TestFlight are captured there.

If you want to have longer discussions and interactions with us, we have a new community at https://lemmy.world/c/liftoff.

Thanks all for your support, encouragement and criticism, and I hope to be hearing from you at the new community.

Thanks, Michael

Trying it on Android currently, everything is working great. Had to remove the default lemmy.world guest account (after adding my home insurance) and restart before everything started working as expected.

So that explains the name change, the apps combined

Do we need a new test flight link? Apologies if this is a stupid question.

[–] mykl 3 points 1 year ago

No, the existing one works and even says Limbo still but downloads Liftoff.

Where can I get the test flight link?

Ok, I have used mlem, Memmy, and now this app.

Liftoff wins!

I was skeptical in another thread, but I agree. Been using it for 20 minutes and it is already my favorite.

Hah, I'm glad we won you round!
