Sync (Android): /c/syncforlemmy@lemmy.world

Connect (Android - Beta): https://beehaw.org/post/698247

Lemon (iOS): https://lemm.ee/post/127800

Summit (Android - Released): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idunnololz.summit

Most apps on the list are lemmy apps, meaning they don't work with kbin. Artemis is specifically designed to work with kbin, not sure if or when any of the other ones will go in that direction or become interoperable as there are some challenges with the kbin API at the moment. Having said that, a new API is in the works so things should get better with time.

I made a neat table, here u go:

But a bunch of low karma accounts on Reddit told me Lemmy would never take off!

[-] TBog@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

I'm interested in a foss Android library to wrap the Lemmy API. Any idea? It would make working on Lemmy integration much faster.

[-] god@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Zero idea. Never worked on Android apps myself.

It feels like Memmy is getting updates every single day which is nice, Mlem is quite slow to update

and so, let the hunger games begin

Except everybody wins. Best kind of problem haha.

[-] kill@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

@GizmoLion well some app devs are gonna get bored for sure so we'll see which ones grab a decent userbase and which ones disrupt the dev's life so much that after all that time spent they quit being devs and join a lumberjack's guild nearby to dedicate their lives to deforestation

[-] GizmoLion@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Weird take but ok.

[-] kill@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

@GizmoLion lol, just a perspective from a dev who has loved a few projects for years, and abandoned a few others because holy shit they're just not worth my time

i can see this happening in kbin & lemmy app-world where everyone picks "Ammenides for the Kbemmyverse" and the guy who puts 14 hours a day obsessively into "Omonaia for Cute Kbin" sees just like 3 users who decide to demand loli features and you don't like lolis but you entertain them bc they're your only users but after months of being annoyed by these fuckers you just press alt f4 one day and realize you're being unhappy for a community that's as alien to you as a "caress homeless people when you pass by" hobby club, and decide that enough is enough, and go raise tortoises in a Caribbean island cuz that's all you've always wanted to do but couldn't because you were making loli stickers for a bunch o lolicons cuz you wanted just a tiny bit more attention that you couldn't get in real life due to being isolated in your room 24/7, therefore becoming hostage to your own seclusion-caused feedback loop of depression, loneliness and low self-esteem.

yes, i find suspiciously-specific incoherence funny

I hope one of them displays tables right lol.

This post is a hot mess on jerboa.
