Hi lemmings, I switched over from Reddit 10 days ago now but I couldn’t find a mobile client that I was happy with with an experience similar to the Reddit experience I was used to. So I decided to build my own and I hope you will like it as well!

Play store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kuroneko.lemmy_connect

Features:

  • Material U
  • Dark and Light themes
  • List view / Card view / Fullwidth view
  • Filter lists for hiding posts
  • Multiple accounts + switcher across multiple instances
  • Guest accounts for viewing an instance without signup
  • Search and community autofill
  • Markdown support + attempt to navigate links correctly (/u/foo will open that user instead of browser kickout. Same for /c/, !, and @)
  • Saving posts
  • full sort types
  • NSFW view options (hide, blur, show)
  • copy text and url on all posts and comments
  • add comments, replies, and new posts
  • comment replies with line indicators

Here’s other screenshots:

Future plans:

  • Improving the inbox
  • Swipe actions
  • Multi-~~reddit ~~communities

Thank you for taking a look. I hope others who are migrating from Reddit like me will find the app useful and I’d love to know your thoughts!

Edit: Community for the app is here: https://lemmy.ca/c/lemmyconnect

    Will this app be compatible with kbin.social accounts? I’ve tried to sign in and it’s throwing a whole page of an error message.

      I will look to see how possible it is, I think the APIs are different which is why it’s throwing those errors.

      Lemmy and Kbin are entirely different Software. Fediverse just allows posts to be visible between other fediverse applications.

        So in this case, that does mean that someone with a Lemmy account who is subscribed (from that account) to Kbin magazines will be able to see the latter within the app, right? One wouldn’t be able to login to Kbin, but could view Kbin content from their Lemmy account?

      Bummer that it doesn’t work. I’m quite happy here on kbin. And I didn’t know that the software running them was completely different. So much to learn about the fediverse. Honestly, I’m perfectly happy with the progressive web app version of kbin.social except for the inability to collapse threads. Though I understand ernest is a saint and i’m perfectly PERFECTLY happy to be patient.
