Announcing the Blorp Mac App Preview – Available to Test Now!

Blorp is at a stage where there’s still plenty of work to do, but I’m ready to start gathering feedback. The main areas that need improvement are enhancing the post creation experience and adding the ability to sign up directly through Blorp.

That said, Blorp is already very usable. I’ve chosen to launch the Mac app first because, among all the Lemmy clients, the desktop space is the least saturated. I’m starting with Mac since that’s where I’ve done all my testing, but the plan is to expand to Linux and Windows as well.

I’d love for you to download Blorp for Mac! If you’re not ready to install it yet, or you’re not on a mac but still want to check it out, you can use the web version at blorpblorp.xyz.

Did I mention, Blorp is open source? You can read all the code on our GitHub.

Other platforms coming soon:

  • iOS
  • Android
  • Linux
  • Windows

    Thanks for making it free software! And also thanks for using Tauri instead of Electron for the desktop apps :)

      I’ve spend a lot of hours on this. I’m at the point where I mainly need to know at least a few people will use this. Then some feedback from those people. But if I get those, I’m happy to keep working on the project!

    Any idea when Android+Linux? And any support for UnifiedPush or non-google push notifications?
