The amount of apps being developed for iOS / Android is getting really crazy now and new apps keep popping up every day. Updated list below:

Artemis (iOS, Android, kbin, lemmy): link
Kbam (iOS, kbin, lemmy): link
Memmy (iOS, lemmy): link
Mlem (iOS, lemmy): link
Morpha (iOS, lemmy): link
Thunder (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
Beyond (iOS, Android, kbin, lemmy): link
Jerboa (Android, lemmy): link
Slide (Android, lemmy): link
Sync (Android, lemmy): link
Connect (Android, lemmy): link
Summit (Android, lemmy): link
Lemon (iOS, lemmy): link
Liftoff (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
Boost (Android, lemmy): link
Bean (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
WefWef (Web App, lemmy): link

Most apps on the list are lemmy apps, meaning they don't work with kbin. Artemis is specifically designed to work with kbin, not sure if or when any of the other ones will go in that direction or become interoperable as there are some challenges with the kbin API at the moment. Having said that, a new API is in the works (https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/357) so things should get better with time.

Some of the apps are in a very early stage of development so it may happen that they adjust OS availability and platform support.

Could you update the list with the release status of each app? Some apps are available via FlightTest, some are closed Betas, some need AltStore sole loading, some are only announcements with screenshots.

Lol 9 for lemmy, 1 for Kbin. At least I won’t have to worry about crippling indecisiveness.

Still, excited for the outlook of the fediverse right now.

Crikey!? What an update! That was wild! You'd never get that kind of openness or behind the scenes look from a corporate / shareholder beholden platform! Certainly you wouldn't get this kind of honesty :-D

the server is dying, I don’t even know what I need, help! ;)

Was this intended for Ernest's server update post?

@frasassi
No Lemmur ? It was litterally the only Lemmy app for month (maybe years)

[–] frasassi@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

@liwott It was abandoned
