Exciting news! Lemma got the green light for testing on TestFlight! I was totally stoked to see so many of you signing up for testing—I never expected this much interest. For now, I've closed the signup form to get some initial impressions and work from there. I've invited everyone who signed up through the form to TestFlight. I'm not super familiar with this stuff, but fingers crossed everything works out fine. I'll check later to make sure all the invites went out. So, if you haven't received anything yet, just hang tight, and I'll keep you guys in the loop. Once we've ironed out the kinks, I'll share the TestFlight link so others can join in too.

Lemma began as my little pet project, but I'm really proud of what it's turned into. I've spent weeks fine-tuning little details to get it just as I wanted it to be. In the last few weeks, I've been off from work because I'm starting a new job later in August. And guess what? I managed to release it right before I’m going away on a little holiday trip, with a few hours to spare! Woohoo! 😄

But don't worry, I'll still be keeping an eye on the Lemma community to catch those first impressions, even though I won't be too active during the coming week.

I'm super curious to hear what you all think about Lemma, so please shoot any feedback (good or bad) over to the Lemma community. Just a small favor, though: make sure to check if someone else already reported the same issue before you post, so we can keep things a little organized.

Alright, that's it for now. Enjoy Lemma, folks! 🚀

Wondering what sets this app apart? As a user of Lemmy (and previously Reddit), I understand the importance of a perfect platform for discovering new content. That's why my top priority, from the very inception of this app, has been to showcase all content in the most captivating manner. Here's what I've achieved so far, with more exciting features on the horizon:

GIFS

GIFs will automatically play in your feed, as well as in comments. Let's highlight this aspect: all images will be displayed inline within comments and posts, scaling perfectly to fit the available space. No need to click a link to enjoy that spot-on GIF someone replied to you with!

Video’s

Lemma supports inline videos too! The app employs various checks to determine the type of post, including videos. Better yet, videos auto-play as soon as they come into view, and I've added a beautiful progress indicator, inspired by Apollo.

Albums

Whether it's multiple images included in a post or a dedicated Imgur Album, Lemma seamlessly assembles all the images into a stunning gallery view. Effortlessly scroll through each image just as it's meant to be, while still being able to view the descriptions of specific images (Imgur only).

Live Text

Of course, an iOS app wouldn't be complete without Live Text! Spot some information you'd like to copy? No problem, Lemma has built-in support for Apple's Live Text feature.

Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to announce Lemma, yet another Lemmy client for iOS!

As a longtime fan of Christian's work with Apollo, like many others in the Lemmy community, I embarked on developing Lemma when Apollo closed its doors. My goal was to create a native feeling iOS experience that captured the essence of Lemmy.

What began as a personal project to challenge my technical skills has now evolved into something remarkable. I'm delighted to share Lemma with the world, even though it's still in its beta phase. I'm continuously working on adding more features every day. At the moment, the focus is on optimizing the viewing experience and discovering new communities. Soon, I'll be incorporating features like submitting new posts and responding to existing posts and comments.

Key Features:

• Super-Charged Media Viewer
  • From videos and GIFs to (Imgur) albums, Lemma supports it all.
  • Lemma goes the extra mile by parsing the body of posts to find even more media than most other apps. For example, it can collect all images inside a markdown post, displaying them in a neat image album overview.
• Powerful Search
  • Lemma seamlessly integrates with Lemmyverse.net, making it easier than ever to discover new communities.
• Fully Customizable
  • Personalize your experience with 16 themes (both dark and light mode), 6 comment color themes, and a compact post viewing mode.
• Swipe Gestures
  • Upvoting, downvoting, or saving a post? With Lemma, it's just a swipe away.
• Share as Image
  • Sometimes, a picture says more than a thousand words.
• Safari Extension
  • Effortlessly open Lemmy content in Lemma using the built-in Safari Extension.
• Cross-Post Support
  • Stay updated with cross-posts in your feed.
• Multiple Accounts

In the coming days, I'll be launching Lemma on TestFlight for a closed beta. If you'd like to be part of Lemma's development, sign up using the form below:
