you're gonna have to hear me out on this one.
so, we all obviously know reddit had a lot of third party apps, due to how bad the official reddit app was.
but heres the thing, right? this isn't reddit. this is a federated alternative, where the owners arent just corporate shills who dont have to care about making a usable app. i appreciate all of the options, dont get me wrong, and i appreciate the tons of effort put into them. but...will lemmy ever be accessable if you have to look up lists of apps to even browse it on mobile?
it makes no sense to me. i think what the lemmy developers should be doing is working on or improving a mobile app; again, this is not reddit, and nobody has to deal with a bad mobile app because all of the people who work on the project are under the whims of a corporate product with over, like, 100 million daily users.
i appreciate the options a lot. i really do. but if the culture of 'go on a separate app to browse on mobile' persists for lemmy, which is way smaller and prone to skepticism, not to mention federation being confusing at first and its poor user joining page (join-lemmy.org), all the reliance on getting other people to make mobile apps does is throttle site growth, in my opinion.
td;lr official lemmy app pls (if feasable)
spez a real one fr
