Awesome! Let me know what the pain points are, there's a lot of polishing to do so I doubt I can steal you away from whatever you're using just yet. But if nothing else it'll get to the point you keep it around for the utility

And feel free to go crazy with feature requests - the foundation is deep and flexible, and I'm looking forward to the crazy things I can build on top of it

[–] lunaforlemmy 1 points 1 year ago

The icon is a placeholder made from the recolored fediverse icon I threw together in 20 mins. I know what the actual one will be, but it'll take 6-12+ hours to put together

The visuals will take at least 5-7 days of tweaking unless I find examples of something similar to reference

Instead, I fixed bugs, and posted a beta to get feedback on what I should prioritize.

In that time, I could get a ~15x performance increase, add a dozen random requested features, add kbin and maybe mastodon support, or get halfway through building custom feeds by stitching multiple sorts across accounts and servers.

I build adaptable code, and so I built a foundation. I'm a photographer, not an artist - making things pretty is pure trial and error for me, because I can't picture the end result. I haven't started to try to make it pretty or optimized, I just made it extremely capable and clean enough that I could use it

Can you give specifics of what you find grating instead of just telling me it's ugly?

And tone, but yes, I wrote the original statement, ran it through a few times, prompted it write things it left out, then edited the final result

Thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt

Honestly, I wrote it out, it felt awkward and more like a changelog than anything, I ran it through chat gpt and it stripped out enough details that it flowed better. I deleted everything it said that wasn't what I wanted to say, and we got something that someone read long enough to see the disclaimer

Also, it's over the top and flowery as hell even after tweaking it, but I didn't write it - I got to skip several hours of self consciously agonizing over it before clicking submit and stressing out some more.

Chat-gpt isn't any more lazy than using a power saw. I couldn't have done better by hand, every statement it made was fed to it by me, and I edited down the output in multiple stages so I can stand by the accuracy of the result

Very likely. Even an unlocked phone without carrier bloatware is likely to work - f-droid might even have something to do it without rooting, or even something to access hidden settings and disable whatever bloatware or setting is blocking it

Team Luna


Luna is currently in its early stages, and your feedback holds immense potential to shape its future direction. This is the app that aims to have it all, plus a little extra.

In terms of features, Luna boasts an extensive range that stretches beyond basic posting and commenting. But that's not all – I've taken the liberty to incorporate many more based on the suggestions received during this process.

As for my own contributions, I've introduced various enhancements. Some, like the replacement of links (e.g., twitter->nitter), have been well-received successes. Others, such as direct site connection and search upon clicking, are in progress, while a few, like the option to copy post links, may border on extraneous clutter.

Admittedly, there's still plenty of polishing required, and the layout is a work in progress. Bugs, if encountered, will be swiftly dealt with. If you're up for exploring something that's a tad unpolished but brimming with potential, I invite you to join the beta. Let's collaborate in refining Luna – the Lemmyverse app that's delightfully extra

After a long and painful build process, Google hit me with several hours of paperwork and a waiting period.

Luckily, I have a friend who has no idea what Lemmy is and a talent for using software wrong. I did not expect him to refuse to log in on principle and insist on jumping between servers and inspecting communities one by one for two hours...

But luckily he called me for my birthday, and I'm halfway through the list of bugs and improvements I never would have thought to test.

If you have an android device and like to break things (or are just excited to use Lemmy with more features), give me an email and I'll add you to the tester list (a matrix room is on the to-do list, but I've filled out more forms today than I have in the last year)

Open beta will go live at most 48 hours from when I finish these fixes (which should happen tomorrow afternoon), I'll post the link when Google clears it

The build is ready, after the administrative work is finished Luna will be available in the Play store

[–] lunaforlemmy 1 points 1 year ago

Same, I always imagined it as the sound a leamur makes

[–] lunaforlemmy 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I love it. It's a great name, it has a symbolism with my design goals, it even has personal meaning.

I immediately reserved the name on the play store and grabbed this username. I'm kind of shocked there weren't more apps named Luna, there were a lot of Selene's though

Thanks for the suggestion, I feel like it makes my vision for this a little clearer. Plus it'll be nice not to be embarrassed next time I have to tell someone the name...
