Quick update:

I've been working on this project for a few months. After fighting some of the technical choices I've made, I've decided to rework some big components of the app. The next version, which will likely be 1.1.0, will take a few weeks, but should improve performance on iOS and will also launch on Android.

Because I'm rewriting a large portion of the app, it will likely be a 1 step back 2 steps forward situation. You may notice some steps back on iOS, but ultimately it this will synchronize web with Android/iOS better making it easier to manage all 3 projects and meaning better apps on all platforms in the near future.

Thanks again for everyone's support so far! Please keep your feedback coming, though I likely won't be able to address that feedback until I finish this major update in a few weeks.

If you already have either the iOS or the Mac app it should prompt you to update. You can relaunch the Mac app to trigger the prompt.

Changes

• Add setting to hide read posts in feed
• Fix comments not showing up after submitting
• Fix bug where saved posts feed was only showing posts local to your server
• Refresh inbox tab more frequently
• Cache user profiles
• Improve performance of post feeds (most noticeable on iOS)
• Fix dark mode flicker
• Fix youtube embeds where video ID contains dashes
• Increase the sizing of the login form to make it to use

Appreciate all the feedback so far!

I'm struggling a little to get the performance I want on iOS. I'm curious if anyone is using an older iPhone. I would love to hear if you think the app feels snappy enough or if there's room for improvement. If you could leave a comment or DM me with the phone your using and what you think.

Announcing the Blorp Mac App Preview – Available to Test Now!

Blorp is at a stage where there's still plenty of work to do, but I’m ready to start gathering feedback. The main areas that need improvement are enhancing the post creation experience and adding the ability to sign up directly through Blorp.

That said, Blorp is already very usable. I’ve chosen to launch the Mac app first because, among all the Lemmy clients, the desktop space is the least saturated. I’m starting with Mac since that’s where I’ve done all my testing, but the plan is to expand to Linux and Windows as well.

I’d love for you to download Blorp for Mac! If you’re not ready to install it yet, or you're not on a mac but still want to check it out, you can use the web version at blorpblorp.xyz.

Did I mention, Blorp is open source? You can read all the code on our GitHub.

Other platforms coming soon:

• iOS
• Android
• Linux
• Windows

There is a reason for USB-C extensions not to be part of the standard. They can be bothersome in the best case and dangerous in the worst.
