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!

    This looks awesome! I’m using Jerboa right now so my question is what does connect offer that Jerboa doesn’t?

      Well, it’s just a cross-post, so is don’t know too much about it myself. It seems exceptionally barebones from the few minutes I’ve used it. It’s also very pretty, but oh man, everything is so BIG. It’s like using my grandparents phone. I’m sure it will improve over time.

      Huh, I can’t get a working link. I thought I finally understood how the fediverse worked now. I’m sorry about that. I’ve tried going to the source, and nothing.

      I’m not the maker, but it doesn’t seem like it does from my brief interactions. I know there is one for kbin coming soon™

        Noted, thanks for posting though. Like Jeroba, it definitely has some quirks and bugs, but I’m certainly enjoying it so far.
