There are now close to 10 iOS / Android apps in development for kbin & lemmy!

it never will!!!!!! these 350k users on the lemmyverse are all bots and trolls!!! i bet both my legs that lemmy doesn't even exist

Yeah seems pretty sus

Just trying to do my part for you guys :)

and so, let the hunger games begin

ah lol, doesn't have a markdown table parser

testing it for 5 minutes, so far i like it more than jerboa, looking awesome

Installed and used it for like an hour now, I really like it! A lot smoother than Jerboa, and the UI in dark mode is really nice.

Thank you!

didn't know it was FOSS, added the clarification, im tagging the FOSS ones lol, thx, will test, will also try and get it on join-lemmy

Can't seem to login on my own 0.18 instance. Weird and sad, the app looks awesome !

Keep up the good works and thanks for volunteering your time in such an awesome way.

Edit: it was an issue with instances on 0.18 that has now been resolved.

Anyone else having trouble logging in with their sh.itjust.works acct?

Hey, are you aware that clicking on the second half of a link like /c/plugins@sh.itjust.works makes it comes up like an email on android? If I tap closer to the beginning it takes me to the community though.

Hmm... Tried it out and it had the same problem as I had with jerboa. Can't seem to login with my Lemmy.ca account.

for a lil while at least, june 30 will probably bring another mass exodus, including sync users, let's see how it goes, afterwards i imagine that there'll be a small push and then things will calm down a bit cuz rn it's exploding due to a mass publicity campaign that won't be there when reddit's already committed app-genocide

Lol... Me too

I was gonna say lol. It looks like a random field

Same on Liftoff

I believe it is because it doesn't have a closing tag on the spoiler. Lets see if this works:

Actually it appears Jerboa, Thunder, and Summit do not support tables inside spoilers, yet.

ye but im not sure if it's the same dev, u can check out the link & you'll see there's something going on

yeah jerboa's markdown parser seems to just not have tables included

I think like 7 out of 10 are for iOS too.

edit: i was not completely wrong, but 5 out of 7 iOS apps are also releasing on android in theory, some already have

I am using the Memmy app: https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy you’ll need TestFlight but it works really well

make it happen

Could you publish that build on github? I would love to try it out.

Boost is (should say was) my favorite reddit app, so I designed jerboa based off its UI. I'd definitely appreciate more apps, but boost was always closed source, so it makes sense to contribute to jerboa.

It absolutely would. Do check if the dev has considered it.

Currently busy a work. Will leave this message unread for when I have time. If someone else does it faster I wouldn't mind.

done, lmk if u want more deets

go harass the dev

look for Dawn's dev

hmm, says it's to avoid impersonation, maybe he just doens't want anyone snatching the name and wants to leave it as an option, or he's just parking the name lol idk

That would be perfect, I am going to miss Boost.

Hey @TheVampireSaga@lemmy.world just curious but what didn't you like about Connect? Maybe I can improve it! Thank you.

i didn't get it yet, moved to connect.

nice, did it solve markdowen table?

Seems they will stay on reddit due to an "accessibility exemption" because a lot of blind people use it. And that lemmy is part of. The "long term vision". I won't count on that until I see a verification. However, it seems to be open source so if any lemmy devs make PRs we could accelerate this "long term vision" and bring it ourselves to Lemmy and then the dev, I imagine, would support it.

homemade sin

lol

i added it to the list

100% agreed

He won't do it without some encouragement. He's focusing on Tildes right now. He may even make a tildes client.

KBin and Lemmy are both federated link aggregators (a link aggregator in this case is a type of forum website, like Reddit). They both federate using the ActivityPub standard, so servers running Lemmy and KBin are able to talk to each other and share information, at the server level they speak the same language. However, they are separate pieces of software and therefore have different data APIs (special URLs that user software can use to network with a server), and because of that any Lemmy/KBin app has to come up with separate functions to interact with Lemmy vs. KBin. Let me know if you have any questions or if anything I said didn't make sense.

if u add em to the table i'll copy it over

added

here's a starter:

can you do it?

i finished the base table, u can add anything on it if u want: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/349943

Not currently. And I think the kbin app is actually this, kbin uses /m/ I think? Or maybe I'm just wrong lol

kbin.social has an "app" (at least on Android) but it's just chrome without a url bar. It's not bad, the site itself is pretty well optimized for mobile. No clue what any other kbins are doing.

Coolest thing I've found about it so far is that if you use a dark mode chrome extension and apply it to kbin.social it carries through to the "app"

I recommend using your browser and install the Kbin Enhancement Script. Makes it a bit better like collapsing comments. https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/468612-kbin-enhancement-script

the kbin one by Hariette, she says, is based on Apollo. She says this here: https://tech.lgbt/@hariette/110562926792208789

I don't know if any other is based on apollo, as u can see on the table i have only had time to go through 3 of the links, feel free to check out all the links and lmk if there's one closer to apollo for lemmy

Mlem is fairly close (or at least going in that direction)

Sorry you’re not liking it! Totally open to feedback and have been slowly moving along to getting feature requests implemented. I’d you’d like to chat about it just reach out 👍

Artemis is heavily inspired by Apollo, even in the name!

Artemis and Mlem so far.

YMMV You can download from github and install from Xcode if you missed the beta

are these apps?

1. ppl like apps more in general, ppl don't even know how to install PWA most of the time
2. more of a native feel ye & sometimes they come with many extra features and things that make it more comfy to use on phone
3. some have gestures like sliding ur finger across the screen to like a post or stuff like that

I have no problem running PWAs for things, but I'm not an enormous fan of the Lemmy default browser interface either. It's not terrible, but currently I think Jerboa is better than it (just), and I'm keen to see other developers improve further on it. Some of the Reddit third party apps were very polished and feature-rich (compared to both Reddit's first party apps, Lemmy's first party interface, and Jerboa), so something of that calibre would be gratefully received.

There's an argument to be made that (because of the structure of Lemmy) new interfaces could and should be integrated with the main codebase as themes rather than as genuine third party API consumers, but from an end-user perspective that doesn't really make a difference either way.

as in after you see a post you never want to see it again friend?

no idea, try them & find out I guess. also ask at !lemmyapps@lemmy.world

You can change the default Jerboa view. It's not quite the same and compact as RIF, but you can at least get it so it doesn't auto show pictures and stuff.

Try "Settings" > "Look and feel" > "List"

Memmy has a "compact view", not too similar to RIF tho. You can check it out if you want. It's actually already released and pending play store approval

Working fine for me, but I'm on kbin.social

works for me.
