It’s been a months since 1.0.7 and the app still has bugs that need to be fixed. I’m hesitant to pay for the next month of pro without any progress. Meanwhile Voyager gets multiple updates per week…

Oh I actually didn’t mean that you were being sensitive. I was referring to devs.

Thanks for providing some clarification. Lemmios is swift native, had a few killer features that I didn’t see elsewhere and it was entirely open source…though that one was a side project that seems to fall by the wayside during semester (the dev is a student).

I’d love for someone to make an ENTIRELY OPEN SOURCE, FREE/VOLUNTARY DONATION FUNDED, SWIFT NATIVE IOS LEMMY APP…kind of like Voyager but Swift Native. I’d be happy to fund the development of an app if that funding went back toward helping the rest of the fediverse and was 100% voluntary. IMO, why should I pay a dev working on a fediverse app if they aren’t open source? If I’m paying for a closed source app, I’m paying the dev to create a warchest of proprietary IP and to obfuscate useful code that could help the rest of the community.

Mlem is open-source and Swift based. Not my fav Lemmy app so far, but it seems to cover your criteria.

Ahh, got it. Yeah I guess it can take a toll when people go too toxic, but on the other hand there are people who get their buttons pressed too easily.

!mlem@lemmy.ml is open source, donation funded and native Swift.

!arctic@lemmy.world is also native Swift.

[–] demesisx@infosec.pub 1 points 11 months ago

I have both of these. Arctic is really good.
