Android requires I have a dozen beta testers before I’m allowed to push my app, Blorp, out to the store. My app is FOSS, has matching web, iOS, and MacOS versions with more to launch (e.g. Linux). My goal is to ship one unified Lemmy experience for all Platforms.

I’m really hoping to launch Android in the next few weeks, but I need a few more testers. If this sounds like something you’re interested in, DM me with the email associated with your Android account. Google requires I add people by email to complete the required closed testing.

Hope this is ok to post here. Genuinely I want to deliver the best Android experience possible.

    Anything you’re willing to submit. Just say what you like and what you don’t like.

    Out of curiositity what other backends were you hoping it supported? PieFed or Mbin?

    I have actually never tried Mbin, but I was talking to the PieFed devs the other day. PieFed API isn’t even stable yet, and they emphasized that they want the flexibility to implement features independent of Lemmy. For that reason, I see their API as a moving target that will slowly drift away from Lemmy. They are differnt projects with different goals. I think I can ship a better product if I focus on doing one platform really well.

    If you were talking about Mbin, I would be happy to do more reserach to determine if it’s a similar situation or not.
