Hey guys, a week ago I started working on a lemmy app like many others as an excuse to learn flutter. Along the way I found an old app that was abandoned but very well built.

After a couple of days I was able to get things running and semi-useable again. Including posting this post from the app! The main effort being updating to 0.17.x.

Here’s some screenshots:

I’ll be renaming the app (so I can republish it), tentatively under the name “Lem”… but really open to ideas here.

    tentatively under the name “Lem”

    How about going one abstraction further and calling it Stanislaw? I’ll see myself out (but looking forward to trying the app).

      Not gonna lie, I had to Google that one.

      But point taken lol, I’ll come up with something better.

        There really wasn’t a “point”, I just thought it was funny :) You call your app whatever the fudge you like, as long as it works.

        I absolutely love the idea of a connection to Stanislav Lem. He’s one of the greatest SciFi writers!

        So how about “Stanny”? It sounds similar to Lemmy and tributes Lem.

          Just like “Lemmy” reminds me of “Lenin”, “Stanny” reminds me of “Stalin”

          i aprove.

      Great idea. But don’t spell it with the correct “ł” letter. That will be a pain to input on any keyboard other than Polish ones.
