Hello! I recently just released a Lemmy reader app for open beta. I’ve been working on the app since the black out about a week ago.

The app is will very much a work in progress however the core reader functionality should be working. I will continue to work on the app and estimate it will likely like a month before all core features will be implemented.

That being said, I’ve been having a lot of trouble browsing Lemmy on web and I still think the app is an upgrade over the raw web experience.

If anyone is interested please give the app a try and let me know what you think!

Here’s a quick demo as well: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/MMpMHwzTuII

I started a community at https://lemmy.world/c/summit. I will try to post frequent updates there.

    how can one enjoy working close source?

    Are you really asking how one could enjoy creating an app A) without the general public nitpicking at how and why you’re doing it and B) reserving the ability to make some money off the app?

      I think maybe you misunderstand how Libre Software works. Nobody wants to take away control from the author of forbid them from making money. We just want to have control over our devices and the software that runs on them. We want to be able to see what it does and that it doesn’t have any malicious functionality. Lemmy itself is Libre Software and all software should be like this.
