Summit - A Lemmy reader
Summit - A Lemmy reader
Hello! I recently just released a Lemmy reader app for open beta. I've been working on the app since the black out about a week ago.
The app is will very much a work in progress however the core reader functionality should be working. I will continue to work on the app and estimate it will likely like a month before all core features will be implemented.
That being said, I've been having a lot of trouble browsing Lemmy on web and I still think the app is an upgrade over the raw web experience.
If anyone is interested please give the app a try and let me know what you think!
Here's a quick demo as well: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/MMpMHwzTuII
Update
I started a community at https://lemmy.world/c/summit. I will try to post frequent updates there.
Is it on fdroid and is it foss? I have no access to google play or any other google service by choice and i only use foss apps whenever possible.
May I ask why you don't use any of those?
Because google exerts centralizing control over things. Where i live here in the US if you are not on the play store you may as well not exist. I am led to understand that in much of the eastern world such as china having multiple app stores and such is quite common. I personally choose not to use services from these large companies firstly to limit their abuse of my data, and secondly because most of these companies are american and must bow the knee to the american governmyth to continue to exist. The internet was made to not have a central point of failure, yet what would happen if Google, AWS, and Microsoft all just vanished? Complete chaos would happen over much of the internet and the largest impact would be to western companies.
