Could you update the list with the release status of each app? Some apps are available via FlightTest, some are closed Betas, some need AltStore sole loading, some are only announcements with screenshots.

Very nice to see
Crikey!? What an update! That was wild! You'd never get that kind of openness or behind the scenes look from a corporate / shareholder beholden platform! Certainly you wouldn't get this kind of honesty :-D
the server is dying, I donβt even know what I need, help! ;)
Was this intended for Ernest's server update post?
Yes, weird?! There was a glitch in the matrix!?
Has anybody tried multiple apps? I'm still on Jerboa, wondering if anybody knows whether it is worth switching?
Hey @frasassi, I've been working on a github page to track these apps (and some other info as well). But you have a few I didn't know about, so I'd like to add them if that's ok with you. Let me know if you'd like to collaborate on keeping that up to date (or something similar in another location).
@Zak8022 Hi I don't own the info so feel free to copy it over if you feel like it. I'll keep this here up to date as it makes sense to me for the info to be on the fediverse rather than outside (I see several github and google drive copies now). There are a few links on reddit point to this post here as well.

There another potential app, Fedilab - https://fedilab.app/
Not in development (yet) but there's some feature requests to support Lemmy/Kbin:
https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/issues/886
https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/issues/887
As excited as I am about the Fediverse and its diversity, this is the real dream. I'm afraid efforts are splintering into too many redundant apps (15 at this point across both platforms) when they could be focused on the one app to rule them all with clean, working interfaces for as many federated applications as possible. With Fedilab already supporting Friendica, Mastodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, Peertube, and even GNU Social (with plans to support CalcKey), adding Lemmy / Kbin would be a game changer for me and many others. Add Funkwhale and maybe WordPress and it's game over you never need to download any other apps.
