After using Apollo for years, yesterday I decided to completely stop using Reddit for obvious reasons.
I found Lemmy to be a very competent alternative, but the only catch is the mobile situation: it seems that there aren’t many good mobile clients for Lemmy.
So I decided to take matters into my own hands and develop a new mobile client for Lemmy.
After a couple hours, I have a good looking and working subscription feed; super glad to see that the API is easy to use :)
What do you think about the look of the app? Any suggestions?
While I usually prefer something that follows Apple’s design language, this looks very, very nice! I’m very impressed at far you got after just a few hours.
If you are entertaining feature requests, one thing I’d like to see from third-party Reddit clients like Apollo, Slide, and Narwhal is Haptic Touch throughout. Haptic Touch link previews, post previews, parent comments when you long press a comment, etc. This has always been one of my favorite features, and far too many apps don’t incorporate this.
