Hello! I have made a macOS client for Lemmy - Leomard. It’s an initial version of the app, and my first macOS app made for the public.

Features

  • Mac-native client
  • Fast, small and light (only 9.2 MB)
  • Open source (GPLv3)
  • Beautiful responsive interface

Of course, it’s a very early version, some features are missing (ex. image uploading), and you may encounter a bug here and there.

Don’t forget to follow Leomard’s community: [email protected]

Or straight to the project’s Git: https://github.com/Athlon007/Leomard

If you have questions, feel free to ask :)

Hi everybody! This is the initial release of Leomard - a native macOS client app written in Swift using SwiftUI. It’s still in very early phase of development, features are missing, but it’s a start. Feedback is most welcome!

    That looks very nice. Any chance to make this for Linux?

      The logic of the app should be portable to Linux or Windows (with some modification), as Swift does run on both.

      Front-end would need to be rewritten from scratch though, as SwiftUI is not available on Linux. Sorry :(

        I’d do it if I knew how. Well, I guess I’ll wait for a kind soul to do it.

          Honestly, don’t bother with waiting for Leomard. I’ve seen there are Lemmy clients written in GTK, such as Lemoa and Lemonade.

              I have no clue - I only use my Linux PC with Mint for gaming. All the rest of my work is done on macOS.
