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.

    Thanks you, that’s great :)

    Do you mean F-droid repo?

    As for suggestion, I noticed that you can’t really add a custom Lemmy instance.

        Sorry, I should’ve been clearer.

        You can, if the app ‘allows’ you to (I guess it checks a list or smth).

        I tried few days ago to add some of the new instances, to check if it truly allow you to add any instance. It didn’t let me to add those. Jeroba has the same problem.

        I tried w/ VPN, and also w/ Tor.

        If possible, to ‘force’ it to add an intance even if it fails to confirm it’s a valid instance.

        Tnx in advace for your work mate :)
