Decided I'm going to go ahead with my Kbin mobile app.

Yeah I know i have a lot on the go, but I use Apollo daily, and want a solid Apollo like experience for Kbin.

I'm willing to hand over the project to Kbin if they want, and would love to work closely with the developer on this if possible.

Will be starting this next week, after my camping trip! It will be open source from the start, and contributors will be gladly welcomed! #kbin

Yeah, honestly. I want to use Kbin, but would like a proper app experience

@dansup I got the impression that there was a similar project already under development, possibly by the Apollo developer(s), already? Although I'm not sure it's open source.

@oblomov @dansup afaik @christianselig said he isn't interested in building another app.

@dansup Don't know if you've seen this? https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-mobile-deprecated

There's a new repo at https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-mobile but nothing visible in it yet.

Hey @dansup, how long is your day that you manage to do all these things at once? ;)
Show threadDamon OutlawJun 22, 2023
@dansup You are a machine! I know there’s a Kbin/Lemmy apps in the works. There’s a Discord server and plenty of devs have offered to help, maybe you can utilise their services especially since you have multiple projects.

@dansup How will this app be implemented? Native iOS/Android? Flutter? React Native?
Show threadVague RantJun 22, 2023
@acb @dansup React Native according to Daniel's toot from just after this one: https://mastodon.social/@dansup/110587136358486606
Show threadgarrettw87Jun 22, 2023
@acb @dansup probably React Native, based on Dan’s toots

@dansup Why kbin over lemmy?
Show threadDavid Fleetwood - RG AdminJun 22, 2023
@anthonyvardiz @dansup For me it would be due to the project leads of Lemmy appearing to be tankies. Was a whole thread on that not long ago but I can't find it at the moment. Can't speak to Dan's reason though.

@reflex Tankie?
Show threadDavid Fleetwood - RG AdminJun 22, 2023

@anthonyvardiz
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

Note: One can be a Marxist or Communist without being a Tankie. A Tankie explicitly supports authoritarian communism as practiced by Stalin, Mao, etc, and generally excuses or glorifies the mass murder and human rights violations of those regimes.

I'm not anti-Marxist, I'm anti-fascist which means such authoritarianism is always wrong regardless of whether it's from the left or right. 90% of the threat today is from the right, but Tankies can go to hell.

@dansup Fantastic! Looking forward to there being great apps to choose from for kbin. I'm really loving the platform, but it really needs a good app to drive it home.

@dansup I just hope it is easy to use. I'm willing to learn, but need guidance for these new platforms.

@dansup You should chat with @christianselig and @ernest

Maybe the 3 of you can join forces and get an Apollo-like experience for both #kbin and #pixelfed at the same time :)

Show threadGarrett W.Jun 22, 2023
@dansup you might consider joining forces with @hariette - I figure you or she could use the help! Unless there’s no overlap of tech knowledge, or goals don’t align, of course.

@dansup we gotta get an API nailed down first. If you are able to contribute to that, it would be awesome :)

@dansup Before diving into this project you might look at #Artemis iOS app for Kbin…. Very promising and about to go private beta: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16b0xRu_4lr0nr24CaHjKzxHZCjAgOpvnPqe8-qmJ-3w/edit
