Hey 👋 I’ve been working on a new Lemmy client called Bean for the last few weeks and I’ve put out an early beta.

It’s missing some features at the moment but I’m working to get it feature complete by early next week and would appreciate some feedback as I develop!

You can find out more over at [email protected] but here are a few screenshots.

Let me know what you think if you do check it out.

    Extremely well done! Can’t wait to see where this goes. Downloaded and will keep up with the progress.

    One feature I’ve been dreadfully missing from Reddit apps is the “jump to next popular reply” button in a thread (if that’s the correct way to describe that)

        There’s a similar (maybe even better) feature that was popular in Apollo, which is that, in the comments view, you had a button in the bottom right (position configurable) that, when tapped, would scroll you to the next top-level comment, and if long-pressed, would scroll you to the previous top-level comment.

          This is one of the features I miss most from Apollo. Including the long press to jump back. And the haptic feedback.

          if long-pressed, would scroll you to the previous top-level comment.

          Well fuck I never knew that 😭

            I also discovered it super late in my Apollo usage, I just randomly tried long press on a whim and it worked haha

          Yeah this is really what I meant, haha. I also never knew you could long press to go back… that would have been nice to know 😂
