    If the target audience you speak of is people leaving the other site and coming here, then I’d say 100% yes. I can only speak for myself, but after seeing what they did to Apollo, I would be more than happy to spend some money to support Christian if he were to make an app for Lemmy. I think a lot of others would to.

      There were no really good free Reddit apps for iOS. Apollo hit a niche. A free Lemmy app would at least have to compete with Mlem and the time frame is narrow until the market is flooded (see also: Mastodon’s three months from 0 to 7262952 apps).

        There was, Alien Blue. Then Reddit bought it up and disfigured it into the official app.

        There were a few others besides Apollo though. BaconReader was solid.

          I used BaconReader on Android back in the day. I didn’t know it had an iOS version. I stand corrected.
