Hey there. Just started my journey with lemmy and am not so much a fan of using it in a browser. Is there some linux app I might try? (I use arch btw.)
Jerboa is FOSS and available on f-droid, that’s what I’m using at the moment.
Also the dev behind Redreader is talking about pivoting to support Lemmy instead once reddit goes down, so keep your eyes on that.
If I had 3 more of me, I’d build a cross-platform desktop app for lemmy using the rust gui framework iced.

Not sure there’s a remindme bot, I haven’t seen many bots around here. Might be best to set your own reminder if you want to come back to this.
I think that was a joke

Let’s find 2 more of you then :)
No one wants to 😞 . I have over 90 github notifications alone in the span of several days, each of them requiring at least 5 minutes of response or investigation. I just want to code.
I’d be happy to help if possible.
I’m not an amazing coder, but I could definitely review PRs or issues in my downtime.
I have a feeling you’re about to get a lot of offers for help in the coming weeks!
I’m personally very new to lemmy myself, you might be able to use Tafkars ([email protected]) if it works for desktop to proxy requests to your Lemmy instance.
I’m curious, what’s wrong with the web version? I have a feeling that were GUI application written, it would use Electron or Tauri - aka a waste of resources to use an entirely new browser instance instead of a tab.
I’m just expressing my dislike of electron and tauri, but honestly curious about your reasons :) Everyone’s allowed to have their preference
Well, that’s exactly why people like me and OP want normal, like, built with GTK/QT, linux client. It’s more lightweight and more integrated to system.
