Raccoon for Lemmy | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
f-droid.org
Mobile client for Lemmy, a federated aggregation and discussion platform.

Today a new synchronization job has run and the app has been imported! 🎉🎊🎉 I know it may not mean much to you, but for me (after more than a year for the first build attempt) this is a great achievement! I had lost hopes but, since I was starting the submission again for the “twin” project Raccoon for Friendica, I thought it would cost little to try again. And the idea proved successful!

If you are wondering what the root cause of the issues was last year, builds were not reproducible due to a l10ns plugin. F-Droid maintainers told me so I proceeded to remove it and find another way to read localization files.

Another “infrastructure” news is that I’ve set up a cool code coverage (Kover) plugin to measure how much the code is covered by unit tests and upload the reports to Codecov to see charts about how the metric evolves.

          Also from the screenshot, it looks like you were searching for ‘raco’ rather than ‘racco’.

    I am expect a moderate uptick in the number of users because Fdroid is fairly known in certain circles.

    Edit: expecting

      I don’t expect anything but I’m genuinely curious to see whether there will be any change in adoption.

      Yes, the two projects are closely related… often the Friendica app (which is smaller and newer) has been a “playground” to experiment new technologies and improve the Lemmy one, sometimes the other way round. It’s a way to learn new things continuously.
