I plan to support Android too, by the way. It is already about 90% functional, mainly just some styling issues due to a few quirks between iOS and Android rendering. I’ll keep you guys all posted!

Those are some of the main reasons. Also, the fact that it can be easily released as an Android build as well is nice, especially for users who would want a more Apollo-like feel on android devices. I have not personally tested Jeroba, but from screenshots I have seen (while it does look great!) it doesn’t have the same look as some of the old Reddit apps.

Bottom line is this is a huge preference thing. I don’t want to take anything at all away from Mlem. If you know Swift and think you can contribute to that project then by all means you should! Looks like a great project. Glad that there’s so many people working on things for Lemmy already!

Yup. I took it for a spin on a simulator and things are about 90% functional out of the box. There’s some weird scaling issues with the text, but I believe that to be the patchwork way I’m rendering the markdown right now. Once I finish the markdown parser it should be the same across both platforms.

While it does take up the whole view, I intend to have a few other buttons and things on screen. The comment that you’re replying to will be visible under the comment section, and there will be some buttons to easily add markdown to the comment.

I have something in the works and should have it released today or tomorrow.

Thanks for the cross post! Please feel free to let me know if you guys run into any issues!
