Hi everyone,
I am the indie developer behind SoraSNS (a Fediverse and Bluesky client featured by Tech Crunch twice).
I just started working on a modern and futuristic styled Lemmy client.
It will have a modern UI and equal features as the alien blue app.
Some features I am planning include:
- all features like alien blue app (you know which app I am referring to)
- a better notification interface so you can see the thread the message belongs to
- auto translation feature
- bookmark folders
- folders to organized your subscribed communities
- a discovery feed for most popular posts from your subscribed communities and followed persons
- watch a post and receive notifications about new comments
- scroll horizontally to switch to previous or next post in the list
- Home Screen widget to automatically show top news, refreshed automatically several times a day
- Filters for posts and comments based on activity, follow status

in reply to sorasns • • •Why the need for craming AI into it?!
Also Discord? We are on the fediverse here...
sorasns
in reply to macniel • • •I have also updated the Discord link with a Lemmy community!
Let me know about any feedbacks at any time! Thank you for your comment ;)

in reply to sorasns • • •I think your work with this client is nice. You obviously put alot of hours into this one.
You'll probably discover that AI and maybe Discord is unpopular on this platform, and therefore you will not get alot of love here.
BUT it is a nice client you made. Don't want you to think otherwise, even though people disagree on some of your implementations. Because that's the thing you are being judged on. Not your hard work and skills.
Hope the best for your client.

in reply to themurphy • • •Thank you for your kind words.
Yeah I guess I need to soak in a little more about the culture here. And yes, I learned so much just within the few minutes after posting ;) And I will make sure the final product is what most of people here like, for example, focusing more on functionalities and design, keep it original and without AI features, and focus more on using Federated platforms instead of centralized ones for means of communication.
Thank you again for putting these words instead of just downvoting. As an indie developer who work hard to bring great apps to everyone I appreciate it a lot! ❤️

in reply to sorasns • • •I doubt this includes tablet/iPad split view, as no app since alien blue/narwhal has had one like them. I’d be happy to be proven wrong and try the app if that’s the case.
sorasns
in reply to brrt • • •I can add split screen feature. Do you mean like automatically open a new window in right when you tap to open a profile page or a post? Or you can drag the app icon to the side to open 2 windows.
Basically I’m using native SwiftUI to implement this app so many features like multiple window should be available with just 1-2 lines of extra code.
