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

    I’ll take a look at how Boost for Reddit formats their titles, thanks! The ‘Frontpage’ once you’re signed in should be equivalent to the Subscribed page.

      Not the original commenter, but very intrigued by your app and a HUGE fan of Boost, especially its compact mode. Adding some screenshots here in case they provide inspiration!

      ^ happens when you long-press a community name while in your main feed - being able to hide communities/posts/users through a long press menu (without clicking through) is my absolute top Boost feature

      Looking forward to checking out your app, thanks for making it!

        Also man, it has been so long that I’d forgotten how wonderfully granular Boost was in its theming/tweakability:
