Hey, black cat! From the screenshots, your app looks very promising. Would you consider making it FOSS, though? Just asking.

The app looks great! Feels very fluid.

I have only three requests:

• make it FOSS in spirit of the fediverse (obviously you don't have to, that's your choice)
• give me a way to download pics from inside the app. I very often download memes and share them in other chats. You've got open external, which works, but it's an extra step. Downloading in app would just be more convenient.
• lastly, give me a way to buy you a beer 😁

I would strongly recommend open-sourcing it! There are several FOSS apps already and it would be hard to compete against them without opening up =]

Thank God there's a filter setting 😭😭😭 sorely missed coming from infinity. First thing filtered? "reddit."

That UI looks really clean. I love it. Is it open source? Not that i dont trust you but i try to not use any closed source apps anymore, i would appreciate it if you would share the link to the source code.

Nice job. But not available in my country (Germany). Looks really nice and familiar to reddit apps.

It's interesting. Needs some more formatting options imo. I liked how in boost for reddit the titles of posts were always at least as big as the preview of the body of the post. Just makes it look much cleaner imo. Could use a font size option. Could use some color options too eventually.

Also, it needs a "Subscribed" page. Default lemmy has this page that only shows you content from communities youre subscribed to. You should see about getting that feed on your app.

Overall though great work, it looks really promising thus far and I'm impressed with how quickly you've put this together.

Can you also host the APK or upload it on F-Droid?

Will you be making this open source?

Congrats for the release! I finally have alternative to Jerboa!

Some feedback if you don't mind:

• Full Height view. It's like the full width view, but display the image without any cropping.
• Tap and hold to show image in full screen, release to close. Very useful for compact views. Also should works for articles thumbnails.
• Native imgur support. Right now it's treated as a web page. If it'll require using paid API, just disregard this until you have some funding.
• Preload images when on wifi (optional setting). Basically preload the next N images in the list so they'll appear instantly.
• Show full community names and user name. Right now it only show the community name and user name, but not the instance name. This is confusing if you subscribed to multiple communities with the same name from multiple instances. Same for usernames.
• option to toggle denser comments views with minimal whitespace.
• (possible bug?) The community list on the side menu doesn't show all my subscribed communities.

Looks great from the screenshot!

The Google Play doesn't let me install it though and I can't find it via the Google Play app.

Edit: it says that the app is not available for any of my devices. I'm using a Pixel 7

I love the look and layout, but I can't get any threads to load. It just says "No posts"

Nothing is showing up in my feed when signed in to lemmy.ml

Also, the Google password manager is trying to input the password into the instance text box when trying to sign in. Pixel 7 Pro.

Wow, you are really fast! I've been using Jerboa and the PWA, but not super happy with either. Yours look great! Will use it more and feed back to you if that's okay.

One thing I found is that it doesn't show the number of new comments. I usually sort by NewComments, and I would expect to e.g. see "49 comments (14 new)" like Jerboa/PWA.

Looks great but it says it's not available in my country (Brazil)

Damn that looks awesome! Did you find any good docs on the API? I only found the lemmy-js-client, which is a library, though. Wanted to do some shenanigans with Python and Lemmy, but there doesn't seem to be too much documentation...

Looks good and I was able to get it on pretty quickly. I was about to post this from the app but saw it's missing the web's markdown shortcuts and image upload option.

Also looking at this post the screenshots are cropped and I didn't see a straight forward way of looking at the whole image.

I signed into my dataterm.digital account but when I go on profile I see my feddit.de profile even though I didn't login with it.

I love the app! I just wanted to give you some debug info. I can't log into a second account on my current andoid tablet or andoid 10 phone. The button to do so does nothing.

Downloaded and used for an hour or so. I'd like to see an option to change the font size. I like my stuff to be small so I can get more content on the screen. 1.6 posts is pretty bad for me. I also couldn't find a way to change my default homepage to "subscribed - new" but maybe I just didn't search hard enough. Either way, it's good to have some competition for Jerboa!
