hariette@tech.lgbt - #kbin + #lemmy app is coming along. Here’s a preview of the upcoming beta. This is less than a week’s worth of work,  so it’s only up from here 😉

Based on polls, looks like Artemis is winning for the name. Which is a great tribute to #ApolloApp 🙏

Stalk my work and suggest ideas in the app’s Discord server (link in bio).

    Well that’s three apps for Lemmy on iOS with two being directly inspired by Apollo

    Choice is great and all but at this small scale feels like unnecessary replication of work

      It doesn’t bother me at all. Alternatives mean more chances to find something that fits my needs.

      Artemis is going to be cross platform I’m pretty sure. Which is good. On Android, Jerboa is okay but still kinda rough.

        That’s great! I hope this would get people to take the app and use it more, I’m hearing alot from other people about how it’s difficult to use.

          There’s three. Jerboa (the most mature), Lemmur (abandoned), and Thunder (currently broken)

      There’s an open need - and a winner isn’t really determined yet. Let’s see how it plays out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Artemis is for Kbin as well. The original working name was kmoon

      While there are a few apps for Lemmy now, afaik this is the only app currently for Kbin users. More competition in the space will only make all of the apps better in my opinion.

      Lemmy has 2 apps. I believe this is the first for Kbin, but it also works for lemmy.

      Since when is more choice a bad thing?Especially now when we’re at the beginning of everything blowing up in popularity. Im going to try all the apps and decide which UI I like using most, just like I did with RiF, relay, sync, etc. The more developers the fediverse attracts the better imo.

          Collaboration is great but you wouldn’t tell a solo musician to just join a band because they make similar music. I look forward to checking out everyone’s take on their app ideas.

          As a programmer myself, collaborating on projects can often be more complex than simply “adding features.” It’s not uncommon to encounter challenges such as mismatched preferences in technologies, differing architectural choices, or even divergent design aesthetics that can dampen interest. Moreover, the original creator may not appreciate the proposed changes and could reject them outright.
