Is Lemmur planning on updating the app?
Just discovered the Lemmur app and at first glance, looks very promising. Opening up the app, nothing loads. Ok, maybe i need to log in. Tried in log into my account under lemmy.ml and it just spins
Headed over to their github page, and its been over a year since the last release, v0.8.0 that supports v0.15.0. Seeing that most, if not all, instances are pass this version, is there any plans on updating this app?
-
Lemmur is officially unmaintained, as per the github page.

Can't preview instances
When I click on an instance, it never loads. It just keeps buffering. Is this happening with anyone else?
-
lmmur 0.9.0 is out, but no source code available
In GitHub repository last commit is from August, last release is 0.8.0, but in Google Play and F-Droid, new version is available to download, but with integrated browser issue. I can't fix this issue by myself and also, old version 0.8.0 from January is outdated and I cannot login to my account. Isn't lemmur open source no more?
-
Use external browser
Is it possible to have the option to open links in posts in an external browser, other than the internal lemmur one, just like in jerboa?
Thank you.
-
Is Lemmur dead?
Neither of the devs have commented in months and no updates in the github for a while either. Has it been abandoned?
-
Lemmur can't find Feddit.de Instance
When trying to add the instance to Lemmur, it says "instance not found".
Lemmur is a way better app I think, although Jerboa is pretty solid.
Does anyone have a solution for that?
-
How to join federated communities?
I am surprised that this issue exists at all - but can it really be that with Lemmy it is not possible to search or join communities from other instances except for lemmy.ml!? I'd like to enter something like

iOS beta testing via TestFlight
Hi, I noticed that the TestFlight link in the sidebar is not accepting new testers. Is it possible to become a tester still? I will provide feedback and report bugs if desired.

Open Lemmy links in Lemmur app?
As the title says, is it possible to choose to open the Lemmy links (for example https://lemmy.ml/postXYZ) directly in the Lemmur app instead of in browser?
-
Feature request - Go to top
Pressing the 'home/house' button should go scroll back to the top. If one scrolls down a long way it one needs to scroll back to the top manually, which is just a waste of time. Instead one could douple tab the home button.
-
Can't log in on the app
I tried to log in on the Lemmur app, but it just wouldn't proceed (infinite loading). Lately I had similar problem with the Element app - when I joined some groups it just endlessly loaded and wouldn't join them unless I restarted the app
Does anyone know how to fix it?

lemmur v0.8.0 - lemmy v0.15.0 support & Weblate
github.com Release v0.8.0 · LemmurOrg/lemmurAdded Support for Lemmy v0.15.0 Changed "Time ago" strings, dates, and compact numbers are now localized
This release includes support for lemmy v0.15.0 and lemmur is finally translation-ready!
Lemmy devs are kindly hosting lemmur translation strings on their Weblate instance. Feel free to contribute strings there, we regularly sync string changes with Weblate.
We wanted to make sure that all the efforts that went into translating Lemmy do not go to waste and thus we ported to our Weblate as many translations as we could (~130 strings).
We use flutter's native file format for translations: ARB, which itself uses the ICU message syntax. In most cases you will be able to deduce the syntax based on the source string. Here are 3 important examples:
1. Placeholders
Hello there {name}!
- placeholders are put in a pair of braces, it will be later replaced with an appropriate value.2. Plurals
You have {amount} new {amount, plural, =0{messages} =1{message} =2{messages} few{messages} many{messages} other{message}}
- plurals are checked against their quantifier and provide 6 possible forms to choose from. In English this example does not make much sense, since we could just provide the=1{message}
andother{messages}
case.other
case always has to be specified, it acts as a fallback.3. Selects
I will take a {distance_name, select, close{bus} far{train} veryFar{plane}}.
- selects allow for arbitrary matching against some predefined cases. All cases should be the same as in the source string. -
Search in comments ?
Is there any way to do so ? If not, do you think it could be a good feature ? Would it be difficult to implement ?
I think it could be great to avoid bringing up something that was already discussed, and if so, help to find and participate in the discussion around that aspect of the topic !

Feature request: compact mode
I am not sure this is the best place for a feature request but a discussion before the actual feature request is most welcome.
On mobile, lemmure has a card display design. This is nice to show images and other details. However, some people like me want a compact mode a bit like redreader for reddit. Short strips or list of posts and we gat the full detail when we click on the post.
This is useful to see more content on screen at once while allowing some quick gestures like swipe left or right to upvode or downvote.
-
Combined Instance Notifications
This would be a nice feature to have, so you don't have to manually check every instance you're apart of. I mainly get comment notifications, so its not a big deal for me, but Lemmur is the only mobile app for Lemmy, so it would improve the experience of Lemmy users as a whole. (and make federation an easier for new users.)
-
Why does it keep saying "Pasted from clipboard?"
Whenever I open lemmur since android 12 it notifies me that lemmur pasted from my clipboard without my express permission. That is sketchy. Idk how I feel about using this with that in mind.
-
[Feature request] please add a visual signal for unread or new messages.
Thanks for lemmur deves for making such an awesome app for Lemmy on android. I am grateful of you for this and more.
The story:
here I am scrolling this awesome app foss and fedi. Then I realize that I might have some replies, messages, or some Lemmy in app notification yet my natural instinct is to look at the bell icon for some sign of change. Am I conditioned in weird way to expect this "feature".
The request:
kindly add some icon change signal to softly alert the app user that they have a notification in waiting.
P.s. : I mute system notification for reasons and peace of mind. I don't mind alerts when I am using the app coz the app has my full attention.
-
Lemmur claims my password is wrong, but I know for a fact that it isn't
I've copied my password from bitwarden, I can log in with it on a browser, but the lemmur app just keeps telling my my password is incorrect
I'm using android 11

Where can I help with italian translation?
Maybe there's something on sites like Weblate but I can't find it.
-
Please log out and log back in on instances using Lemmy 0.13.0
Lemmy 0.13.0 invalidated all authentication tokens meaning your current account will cause infinite spinners in lemmur. This has showed us that we should improve invalid auth handling, hence I have created a report for that: https://github.com/LemmurOrg/lemmur/issues/265

Plans for a hide button?
I was wondering if there are any plans for a hide feature so that I'm less likely to view the same content repeatedly.

Just installed Lemmur
I got a new android phone today, so I can finally check this out. UI is great. Everything looks really impressive so far.
I'm also making this post just to see how posting looked. I was going to complain about the lack of a preview button, but I see the toggle icon for it now. It's clever!
-
iOS TestFlight beta is closed
I would love to test the iOS beta but it is closed. On github one of the devs recently said that it is available there.
So I'm thinking this may not be intentional. I'm using the link on the sidebar. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
-
Just started using Lemmur!
Just started using Lemmur and so far it is really good and user friendly. It being on fdroid with no need for more repos is cool as well. I am sending this from Lemmur

Creating communities on Lemmur
Can anyone tell me if its possible to create communities on Lemmur? I can't find such an option
-
Just a little appreciation to the lemmur devs
The things are changing constantly:
- Lemmy API
- Flutter releases
- Material You (not sure if this will have influence but it's a big change anyway)
So I'd like to thank the developers for all their hard efforts to support the above.
