I’ve been working on a new Lemmy client for iOS and Android and will be looking for testers in the coming weeks. I’ll be starting with iOS and then later rolling out to Android.

Features (so far) include:

  • Compact and card views
  • Multi-account support
  • Gestures
  • Nested/Threaded comments
  • Themes

Let me know some of your favourite features of other Lemmy / Reddit apps that you liked that I may not have thought of!

Please follow the link if you’re interested in testing. Here are some screenshots of the app so far and you can check out my thread on its development on Mastodon.

What’s the license for the source code ? Is it FOSS ? What is the privacy policy ?

I’ve heard kbin users refer to themselves as “beans”, but now there’s a fediverse app called “bean” for lemmy. Lol.

Looks like some fantastic work so far! This is exactly the type of app I’m looking for. I’d love to test it out once it gets to that phase :)
