The amount of apps being developed for iOS / Android is getting really crazy now and new apps keep popping up every day. Updated list below:

- Connect (Android - Beta): https://beehaw.org/post/698247
- Lemon (iOS): https://lemm.ee/post/127800
- Summit (Android - Released): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idunnololz.summit
Most apps on the list are lemmy apps, meaning they don’t work with kbin. Artemis is specifically designed to work with kbin, not sure if or when any of the other ones will go in that direction or become interoperable as there are some challenges with the kbin API at the moment. Having said that, a new API is in the works so things should get better with time.
I made a neat table, here u go:

I hope someone developes something with a compact view like RIF had. Using jerboa right now and I’m not really comfortable with it. Also for some reason it doesnt support T9 input so thats sad too.
Memmy has a “compact view”, not too similar to RIF tho. You can check it out if you want. It’s actually already released and pending play store approval
Hoping they approve this sometime today. Surprised it’s taken this long, but I have a feeling the fact it’s a “social media” app is what might get it held up for a bit. We will see though. Apple was much better about this.
As far as the compact view, I’m definitely taking feedback on this right now since frankly I don’t ever use that sort of view anyway. Not sure exactly what people want to see. Let me know!
have you used rif? might be time to download it and use it while it lasts cuz it won’t be there for reference after june 30
I took some screenshots for you.
Thanks for sharing. Adding a screenshot showing the formatting bar
Basically theres a lot more content present on the screen.
The “reply”/“comment” implementation isnt that great because it pops up a new box on screen hiding the comment/post i’m replying to behind it, so here i think jerboa’s implementation is nicer.
Jerboa has a “list view” that is very similar to compact view on RIF. That is what I use and I find it similar enough.
didn’t know this, will try it out, thanks
You can change the default Jerboa view. It’s not quite the same and compact as RIF, but you can at least get it so it doesn’t auto show pictures and stuff.
Try “Settings” > “Look and feel” > “List”
Yeah, I’m already úsing that. It improves the front page a bit, but comments have a lot of blank spaces between them.
And most importantly, my T9 keypad doesnt work.
