Def subscribe to /m/ArtemisApp magazine. We’re just starting our staged rollout to beta testers who signed up. With a public beta aimed for end of month.
Been following your work for a bit over on mastodon and signed up for the beta. Looking forward to getting to try out the app when it's ready!
Thank you for following along! <3
Kbin itself, unlike Lemmy, has no API yet for apps. Without that apps in development like Arthemis have to depend on scraping the website internally.
Artemis uses its own API which scrapes kbin. This is only temporary until an official kbin API is available.
When a API is established, it will be much easier to develop apps for this service, like it is for Lemmy already.
The website.
Why does everyone want an app?
Because the website is missing key features, bookmarking posts, collapsible comments, never ending feeds and comments, being able to expand images without opening the post first, uniform interface, and less download when loading posts. It allows for a more fluid and uniform experience.
The people at [email protected] have been putting together a package of userscripts that address some of that in the Web UI on the client side.
Great for desktop. How so you use these for mobile?
I'm not, but my understanding is that Firefox Fennec can use Tampermonkey and that's how people are using them on mobile.
EDIT: Just tested it and it works on Android for me. Looks like it's only set up to have permissions to run on kbin.social, though, so you can't run it on fediverse.boo or whatever other kbin instances.
Net yet, they are on the way.
Till then the kbin mobile site works well as a PWA, even better if you install these scripts:

Easy to do with Fennec
