Yeahhh... Out of all those I tried, that was by far my favorite. So much so that I didn't even remember how unintuitive the regular website was til I had to shoot someone a quick message, fumbled uselessly through my chats, and realized I really had to google how to find my inbox on a site I've used every day for four years.
Despite his stated disinterest, there's apparently been talk about the dev re-releasing it for Lemmy instead and I can't tell if there's truth to that or not. The app store listing seems like some unnecessary work for just a placeholder.
......but I don't use lemmy, so I'll just have to see what Artemis is about.

He confirmed the Lemmy app.
It's in the playstore where you can pre-register for it. Looks great.
-
Really hope there'll also eventually be /kbin support
-
The problem is that there's no API yet. Once the API happens, I'm sure there'll be lots of apps to choose from

Edit: I am releasing Boost for Lemmy, you can pre-register to get notified when it is available. In the meantime you can create an account and join https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

This is where I get confused with the federation part. If I’m signed up on kbin and masterdon do I need to sign up on lemmy as well or is it pointless having 3 signups if you are able to see all posts?
-
More the second one. I joined that lemmy sub using my kbin

It is useful to have just 2 logins, one for kbin (or lemmy) and one for Mastodon (or Calckey).
You can see content from Mastodon on kbin but it's not the same experience since there's no timeline, hashtag follow, etc. Similarly you can see threads from kbin in Mastodon but the UI is not very nice.
For kbin and lemmy, different logins are not needed since they share the way they show information. So you can seamlessly browse lemmy content in kbin without worrying where it was originally posted.
