Have you ever considered potentially adding support for Mbin, alongside the already existing Lemmy and Piefed login/support options?


I don’t personally use Mbin, but it struck me that supporting it could be interesting from an ecosystem standpoint — essentially completing the “trinity” of major ActivityPub-based forum platforms:

  • Lemmy
  • Piefed
  • Mbin

Even if Mbin support isn’t a priority right now, I thought it might be worth floating as a future consideration, especially for users who like to move between different Fediverse ecosystems while keeping a single client.

    It’s been discussed before but I think the big problem is that it’s an entirely different API, unlike Piefed and Lemmy who share a lot of things. Adding compatibility with Mbin would be a ton of work, especially if you want to also support the microblogging element that is unique to Mbin in the ecosystem.

    Currently Mbin has a relatively tiny user base that is also not really growing explosively, so I am not surprised it still has only one mobile app (as far as I know).
