I really love Boost for reddit, I know it’s not open source but I’m sure there are open source apps that are similar enough. Does anyone know how to adjust one of these open source reddit apps to work with Lemmy? I am using an open source android app from f-droid, and it lacks some of my favorite features like tapping to collapse comment chains, customizable UI, etc.

    Boost was my favorite reddit client, so I based jerboa’s ui mostly off it.

    Tap and hold the comment title bar to collapse a comment.

      That’s what I’m using, and thank you for sharing that one! I didn’t realize it was a feature, it would be nice to have more options (I can help somewhat as I’m a programmer, but tbh android stuff like apps isn’t my specialty). I can help a ton with backend or device settings stuff though.

        I did teach myself android / jetpack-compose so I could develop it, being mainly a rust / typescript dev myself.

        We could dev use help pretty much everywhere along the lemmy stack tho, the back end, lemmy-ui, more apps, more web uis, etc. Glad to have you!
