Hoping to have a private beta test within a month or two. For now calling the app Kmoon (K🌛)
Sign up here!
EDIT: the app will be x-platform (iOS, Android and Mac)
That’s fantastic. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, just doing my part to serve the community!
This kind of stuff is exactly what the fediverse needs. Great work!
100%! So much growth left in the fediverse. And I can’t wait for more competition on the app space :D
iOS dev, making a cross platform app, inspired by how apollo was?! Oof, as an Android user, i cant wait! 👍
Budgeting to get an Android device so I can test it myself too ;)
Also, Apollo was just iconic. If I can built half of that, we’ll be rocking it!
Which Android device are you looking at? I’ve always wondered how devs develop for Android since there’s so many different kinds of devices that run Android with different capabilities. With iPhones, I’m (hopefully correctly) assuming that it’s a little easier since there’s only so many versions to support.
Yep, much easier on iOS. For Android I’ll prob pick a Pixel.
You should try using Android as your daily driver though. Some months ago I tried iOS and I hated it. Of course this is a personal opinion, but you should really try it. My current phone is the OPPO Reno8 Lite. It’s cheap, fast and overall really good.
I got a One Plus 11 coming tomorrow. Gonna be my daily driver while I polish the Android side of the app :)
Ooo, a pricey one. I’ve read great things about it.
it’s sooo nice. The ultra charging ain’t a lie, crazy how fast.
This is great! I miss features from apps on Kbin, like saving posts, collapsing comments, etc. Signed up.
Wanted to add - Joey for Reddit was my go-to on Android when I left iOS/Apollo. Might be good inspiration, as well; I actually felt that Joey handled somethings much better than Apollo did.
Hadn’t heard of it. But taking a look!
Joey for Reddit is/was the ULTIMATE client if you desire customization of the experience.
Man…I spent days on those font size and elements to be show/hide on the cards/threads. But it was in the end MY PERFECT experience
I’d rather see Relay or Infinity inspired stuff but I guess it’s a first step for this type of field.
Noted. I’ll take a look at those and see what I can pull from them too.
It’d be nice to have a landing page like what Apollo has. One where you can favorite Magazines and the like.
I’m happy to see kbin apps start popping up so fast. Signed up for this beta.
Signed up! I’ve been using a Firefox shortcut on my Android phone for the past couple of days, but an app would make things much easier and more accessible.
Will this be open source?
Following this with great interest! Thanks for your hard work :)
Signed up!We’re watching your career with great interest!
Wow! that’s amazing, looks really good already!

I like it! Signed up for the beta. Do you plan on open sourcing it at some point?
I’ll consider once the codebase reaches a satisfactory point. Would want to write some contribution guides and whatnot.
How’s it pulling data? There is currently no kbin API (previous one was removed)
I posted elsewhere in thread. But I’m hosting my own API service for it. I can write about it after I get the app out.
It’s a stopgap solution in the meantime.
