Introducing Connect for Lemmy (Android)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/831266

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

SandwichStan,

It looks A LOT like Infinity for Reddit, which is open-source.

fievel,

What about the license? is it open source?

I'm not the developer (and don't know the answer to your question). I just cross-posted to increase visibility (and put it in the 'right' community). https://lemmy.ca/c/lemmyconnect is probably the right place to get answers.

The app looks nice but once I sign in it’s unable to load any posts, messages or anything except a partial list of communities I’m subscribed to

Spzi,

I'm not the author of the app or in any way related. I merely cross posted it to give it more visibility since I was so happy to see it :)

Credits to @kuro_neko!

Also note the dedicated community https://lemmy.ca/c/lemmyconnect. Relative link.

lolreconlol,

I'll give it a shot!

Kettlepants,

Tried it out a bit today. To be honest it would be great if not for the fact that it seems to have lots of duplicated subthreads and duplicated comments, resulting in an intermittent state of déjà vu. If that's ironed out I'd certainly look at it again.

PixelatedSaturn,

I can't find a way to search communities!

Bravo for building it. I wish you luck.

Kuvwert,

Checking it out now!
