Lemming, an app for Lemmy for Android, will be in Google Play Beta next week-ish!
Hello everyone! For the last two weeks, I have been working on an Android app for Lemmy as a side project. It’s called Lemming and has now reached a state where I want to make it publicly available. The app is not yet available on the Play Store, so if you want to install it, you can download the AP...
Hmmmm. But im using an app called lemmy though? Is that not the official app?
What happened is that you probably installed the PWA (progressive web app) which is basically a container for the browser window that's specifically pointed to your Lemmy instance. You can check your actual browser app and see the history, all your Lemmy activities will be there also :)
These Europeans (i noticed pre-2022 Fedi are dominated by them) damn love these PWAs, so practically every Fedi instance you sign up will have a little prompt to ask if you want to install.
Hmm, there's no official app for lemmy though, the only app available right now without sideload is jerboa for android, and upcoming Mlem for ios.
There’s a whole bunch of apps that are being developed for Lemmy/Kbin. I’ve been trying out a few, all are still very much work in progress, Mlem is nice but barely usable yet. Liftoff/Limbo is already very usable on iOS. I’m most excited for Artemis for now.
Edit: here’s a better list: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
i would be happier with a RES-like extension for lemmy. I like being able to open/close posts without clicking on it.
edit: nvm, I'm dumb, looks like that feature is already there by default.
