Do not ask questions on this thread, as most likely nobody will see it, so you will not get your answer. Instead if you have any questions or need recommendations, make a new post.
It is still fine to suggest changes to the list in this thread.
You can add Liftoff! under macOS too. We’ve not done any work specifically to make it a first class Mac app, but it installs and runs perfectly using TestFlight for Mac.
Edit: sorry just realised that this is the original post reformatted. Looks really good, great work!
Yep, that’s correct, it’s a touch-friendly installable web app. It’s still in the plans to have app store releases, but we’re quite some time out from that and it’s not a priority at the moment.
The Liftoff app has changed its TestFlight account - I couldn't get the TestFlight links currently posted to work, so I assume they aren't current. If you click their community's link, it'll say where they are now. I would link it.. but I haven't figured out how to do that yet lol.
Don’t know if they would ever see this but if the developer for the Calipso app for Squabblr wanted to port or build an app for Lemmy I would be in full support! The app was what made Squabblr worth interacting with for me. Once I saw he deleted his account and removed the app from the App Store I deleted my Squabblr account too.
Just tried Beyond, and have currently switched to Infinity from Liftoff. Beyond is in a very early stage, Infinity seems pretty good, especially considering it is also very new. Liftoff is very stable, but I'm not sure if I would stick with it, now that Infinity is a thing.
Also, the current focus is the desktop site and touch-friendly web app. iOS and Android releases are a lower priority for now so it might best to remove it from those lists until announced
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !syncforlemmy@lemmy.world
This list could maybe do with a bit of an update? A few additions, Raccoon & Muffed for android, & some dropping off, abandoned, or no longer being developed/maintained: Arctius (Fennec), Artemis, Beyond, Liftoff, Lemming, Lemmotif, Slide, to name a few, & some that never saw the light of day..🤷🏻♂️
I don't know to answer your question. But you should make a post with that question you will have higher chance someone sees your question.
This thread should be only for suggesting new apps to add to the list
You can feel free to create a post promoting your website.
If you are doing similar things, maybe it makes sense to merge forces and collaborate. It should get you faster to the goal, so no need to lose motivation ;)
Let me know if you decide to merge with wefwef.
Lemminator is a web UI that aims to make Lemmy more approachable for a broad non-technical audience. It can be hosted by Lemmy instance owners, and Lemmy.world users can use https://lemminator.netlify.app/.
Does anyone know of an app that checks the following requirements?
Has an equivalent Reddit app (I think Boost and Sync are examples of this?)
It can remember where you left off even if you close the app. Suppose I'm browsing the top of all time of a particular sub and I want to keep going later just where I left it. Is this something possible with apps or only with mobile browsers?
Great list. I'm favouring Connect right now, closely followed by LiftOff. Jerboa is now having problems logging me into instances and Lemmur looks good but won't connect at all for me :(. Wefwef & Summit look like they need more work for me
The Liftoff app has changed its TestFlight account - I couldn't get the TestFlight links currently posted to work, so I assume they aren't current. If you click their community's link, it'll say where they are now. I would link it.. but I haven't figured out how to do that yet lol.
Why the obsession with apps? Apps are pushed by companies because they can show ads regardless of installed ad blockers and because they can harvest more data about you to sell to advertisers. Because of this they've been progressively making the mobile web worse for years now to force people onto their apps.
But it doesn't need to be that way. Mobile websites can operate just as effectively as mobile apps and I think this website is a great example of that. I for one would love not having to click "no, I don't want to open your website in your stupid app, that's why I opened it in my browser" every time I visit a website on my phone. It used to be that way. I'd love to see it that way again, and this site is a step in the right direction.
