Lemon App
Hey folks! 🏄♂️
First things first:
I have been absolutely floored at the positive response you all have had for Lemon! I frankly did not anticipate so much support and positivity. I want to thank each and every one of you for that!
second things.. er.. second:
Apologies I've been slow to update you all! I want to be clear: Lemon is not dead, and is very much still in active development!
I had a very hectic past couple of weeks in my personal/professional life, and so I haven't had as much time to dedicate to Lemon as I would have liked. Combined with the 4th of July holiday here in the US and some other travel I had planned, my free time was limited. But fear not! We are rapidly approaching a testflight release for iOS! 🎉
What features are currently working for 🍋 ?
Right now, I have:
- signing in with instance search
- light and dark modes
- upvoting / downvoting / saving / commenting
- rendering post feeds, comment threads
- collapsing posts, comment threads
- in-app browser (ie for links, media)
- native image / gallery viewer
- community search bar
- comment / post sorting
- basic account / community / instance filtering (WIP)
What about the other things you said in DevLog[0]? >:(
Yes! So I ended up removing account registration and offline persistent cache for now. These features will both return, but I wasn't happy with some of the bugs. Just about any engineer will tell you that there are two hard problems in CS: naming things, and cache invalidation. I personally think there's more hard things than that, but needless to say, I want to make sure I get these pieces right before shipping them to you all!
Can we see 🍋 ?
Certainly! And since I made you all wait so long and you all were so patient while I got my 🍋's together, I've recorded a small video!

Hey! Welcome to /c/lemon 🏄♂️
This community is for discussions about Lemon, an upcoming iOS app for Lemmy.
The app is in pre-alpha, but I am hoping to get it onto Test Flight in the next 1-2 weeks, free time permitting 😅
If you'd be interested in getting a test flight link, drop a comment in this thread!
That's all for now 👋
