Hi all, keeping this post short, I am working on a new Lemmy app for iOS and Android, heavily inspired on the Infinity for Reddit app.

The app is very much still a work in progress, but I’s like to share some screenshots and a few MVP functionalities already implemented:

Screenshots

Already implemented:

  • Anonymous browsing;
  • Login;
  • Multiple accounts support;
  • Account switcher;
  • Post cards
  • Sorting posts by Lemmy’s sorting options (Active/Hot/New/etc…);
  • Listing posts by Lemmy’s listing options (Subscribed/Local/All);
  • Upvote, downvote (and counters), comment counter, save;
  • Mark post as read;
  • Infinite post scrolling (keep on scrolling, app loads more posts in the background);

What’s next before I make it available in the app stores (MVP):

  • Post view (see post’s comments);
  • Add a comment to a post;
  • Create a post;
  • A sexier selected account card on the sidebar;

What’s still to do before I can call it a beta version:

  • Profile view;
  • Community view (rules mods other details);
  • Search;
  • Dark mode;

What’s to come after:

  • Custom theming/Material You support;
  • Advanced post filters;
  • Community groups (Add communities to a group, see posts only from selected group);
  • A video player with controls over speed playback and maybe quality if possible;
  • Alternative posts view (compact card, list, etc)
  • Other cool misc options.

Dreams:

  • Kbin and Mastodon accounts support.

Keep an eye for future posts, I may be able to announce the MVP by the end of this week if everything goes well, but I can’t promise anything :)

      I don’t have much of an imagination so I asked Bing AI:

      • LemmyGo: A simple and fast way to access Lemmy on your mobile device.
      • Lemur: A cute and catchy name that plays on the similarity between Lemmy and lemur, a type of primate.
      • Lemo: A sleek and modern name that sounds like a combination of Lemmy and emoji.
      • Lemix: A name that suggests mixing and sharing content on Lemmy.
      • Lemyx: A name that uses an unconventional spelling to stand out from the crowd.

      If you wanted to stick to Infinity’s space-ish theme, I think Lagrange would fit pretty well (though there is a Gemini browser of the same name)

      I like going the lemming related route…

      • Lemmini
      • Lagurus
      • Muskrat

      Or in a different direction: Lemmyn. With a yellow citrus 🍋 logo.

      Also, Infinity was my most recent Reddit app of choice. I miss it. Really looking forward to testing yours out.

      Thank you all for your suggestions, as some have suggested above, I think I will probably go with Beyond, as Buzz Lightyear says, “To Infinity and Beyond!”, seems like a good way to honor Infinity but also look at the future beyond.

      How about drawing name inspiration from infinity as well and altering Ouroboros the eternal self-eating serpent.

      You might call it Lemmoboros and the logo could be something like this:
