A designer looking to contribute to the Lemmy-verse - Lemmy

Hi everybody, I’m a UI/UX designer and I wanna contribute to the community here with my expertise. Here is a quick prototype for a Android Lemmy app with Material You Design, it’s a simple and customizable app. With this app, I also want to improve the experience when exploring different servers. Obviously, this is just a concept, so if any developer interest, I’m very willing to collaborate with 🫡 . Vice versa, if anyone stucks with designing his/her own Lemmy client, just reach out to me and I will give you a hand. Here is a quick demo of some basic features: https://vimeo.com/843481714?share=copy [https://vimeo.com/843481714?share=copy] And here is the figma file if you wanna take a look: https://www.figma.com/file/ZBR30l0ZcKuyKMPjeDmvdF/Lemmy-Android-app?type=design&node-id=53526-31054&mode=dev [https://www.figma.com/file/ZBR30l0ZcKuyKMPjeDmvdF/Lemmy-Android-app?type=design&node-id=53526-31054&mode=dev]

The apps are certainly in need of all the help they can get. I have Lemur and Jerboa, and they’re both janky as all heck.
Liftoff is perfect.

Does liftoff look different on Android? I feel like it’s ugly as sin on iOS.

The card shadows are a little much. I forgot those were on my default. @[email protected] would you agree?

I don’t use compact so I’ve not seen those before, but I’m sure that’s not what anyone intended!

I’d be interested to see what’s in the video. I think we’re at a good point to spend some time understanding what works on both main target platforms and making the changes to get us there.
