Boost For Lemmy
Community of the Android app Boost for Lemmy
History in the making before our eyes! ๐
Can't wait - I need to replace the empty space on my home screen which was previously the home of boost for reddit
Same. Every now and then I still reflexively tap my screen to open it.
Wow! That's awesome! Boost was the app I used to use and I can't wait for Boost for Lemmy to come out! I'll keep waiting :D
Good luck!
More iconic than the moon landing, tbh
I was here
It can't come soon enough!
Can you give us at least an approximate date of release?
๐ซฃ
I cannot wait. @Rubรฉn making Boost for Lemmy is what moved me here. ๐๐'s immediately when it's available ๐๐ผ.
hopefully this will make the porn better
As a refugee who migrated because they took away Boost, I'm very excited for this!
HOLY SHIT YES! Say your price, I'll buy it. Boost was THE app for reddit, it'll be THE app on Lemmy for me!
Holy +$@#$%-!! I was floating in the Pacific Ocean for weeks ๐ฅถ after the ship sank. A kind Samaritan pulled me aboard and I'm now safe and sound ๐ค๐ฏ in the BoostforLemmy community.
Also am very much looking forward to the impending app release!
This announcement was the final push for me to create an account on Lemmy. Honestly I don't know if I would've continued using any Reddit-like platform if it weren't for Boost.
How close are we to Boost for Lemmy? I'm trying Sync and hate it. I miss boost and will buy it day one.
I will gladly pay.
VAMOOOSSS!!!
I go where Boost goes
Thank you very much indeed sir, oh yes.
Pop-Fact: Boost is also the name of an interesting Cadburys chocolate bar in the UK and other regions. I used to love the peanut one.
Hyped to see it. Any rough timescales yet? Days/weeks/months?
Probably 3-6 weeks. At next for a basic version and then build up based on community feedback
Been using Jerboa, can't wait until I can use Boost again!
Same!
So excited! I've been a redditor for 14 years, I've tried at least a dozen apps, and Boost was hands down my favorite. Solid apps coming to Lemmy from Reddit is exactly what people need to encourage them to migrate.
@rmayayo@lemmy.world for all the people who don't pay much attention but have Boost on their phone, have you considered updating the app with a big ol' "come to Lemmy" notice?
Thanks, you're a legend ๐
I was unsure where to look for a Reddit alternative, but seeing this app being ported to Lemmy made my decision a lot easier. Looking forward to a smooth transition with Boost.
Thank you, this means a lot! Boost was my favorite app and I'm glad we'll have Boost for Lemmy too.
my favorite reddit app reincarnated ๐
Why does it share stuff? Under Data Safety on Google Play:
- This app may share these data types with third parties: Location, Financial info, App activity, App info and performance, Device or other IDs.
was so happy to see this! Hope kbin support follows soon
Definitely. I've registered with both, kbin and Lemmy, and unfortunately most seem to migrate towards the latter. Kbin is cleaner and less buggy.
another +1 for kbin. I dislike lemmy from a desktop persepective.
Pre-registered..
Can't wait!
Wow! this absolutely made my day! THANK YOU rmayayo!!
I can't wait for this app to release! I've been using Boost for reddit for as long as I can remember and while the current crop of Lemmy apps are okay, they just don't compare to Boost IMO.
Will be launching the rocket as soon as this becomes available, none of the current Android apps have gotten close to how good Boost was for Reddit. Can't wait to use it again
im very happy to see this
Preregistered!
Many thanks for your hard work, I'm very excited that I don't need to say goodbye to boost. ๐ฅณ
I can hardly wait! Any rough timeline? Are we looking at days, weeks, or months?
Pre-registered..
Take my money!!!
Absolutely fucking let's.
Been using boost over on Reddit for years, your app's awesome.
Can't wait to buy the fediverse one. You're going to be appreciated for this, a LOT of us have come over here thanks to spez's total goddamn madness.
Glad to see you here with us!
P.s. Any chance that it may also support kbin one day too? They should be sorting out their API soon since a lot of devs just migrated over and Ernest actually has help developing kbin now. Sure, I can just make as Lemmy account in the meantime, but it'd be a pretty cool eventual option to have
this is awesome!
FUCK YEAH
Yeah! Sky is the limit.
Yes resurrection! Welcome back for the next chapter!!!
Is a Patreon or something similar in the works for people who want to support this transition?
