A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

FYI, a lemmy iOS app, Mlem, is in active development, and we hope to be at 1.0 by July 1. It's heavily inspired by Apollo, but, obviously, with changes for lemmy.
Stay tuned and subscribe to c/mlemapp for updates!
Edit: I want to note that, since one of the biggest sticking points with 3rd-party apps has been both accessibility for the blind and deaf and mod tools, they're both on our minds as we design the interface. Getting both right will, of course, take time, but we want everyone to know that we fully intend to make our app usable for everyone.
While I'm coping that Christian "ports" Apollo over to work with Lemmy, I love what you guys are doing with Mlem. I'm in the beta via TestFlight and what's there works quite well (even though you can clearly tell it's early days).
I'm very new to iOS development, but if I find the time and motivation I might put in the hours to contribute a feature or two.
He mentioned in his post he isn't interesting in doing that and is instead focusing on his 2nd app. Sad but understandable
