Decided I'm going to go ahead with my Kbin mobile app. Yeah I know i have a lot on the go, but I use Apollo daily, and want a solid Apollo like experience for Kbin. I'm willing to hand over the project to Kbin if they want, and would love to work closely with the developer on this if possible. Will be starting this next week, after my camping trip! It will be open source from the start, and contributors will be gladly welcomed! #kbin

Wow seems very promising. I visited pixelfed the other day. I love the design. I have faith and trust that this will be the app I use for kbin.

Afaik, PixelFed doesn't have a mobile app either, but their PWA works wonderfully. The performance is so good I forgot I wasn't using a real app.

Edit: Welp, turns out I'm outdated. While PixelFed doesn't have an official app themselves, they do have one in development (beta), and there are various third party apps for it. Thank you for letting me know!

Pixelfed does have an ios/android app but it's currently in beta. It should be out of beta within a month i think. I've used it and it's a pretty decent app.
