Lemmynade for Lemmy

With all the amazing apps and services everyone is building for Lemmy lately, I figured I might as well share a sneak-peek of mine too!

Lemmynade is a stunning web client for Lemmy with an emphasis on search engine indexability, great moderation tools, and a familiar pixel-perfect experience.

The goal with this project is to:

• Publish a powerful, publicly-browsable, fully-indexable website where all Lemmy instances are accessible at any time. I’ll be using dynamic SEO, SSR, and smart caching on the edge to encourage search engines to index posts (and also make posts look good when people share them to other platforms).
• Create a solid, familiar UX to make it easier for new users to transition from other social media platforms. Lets face it—we need a great user experience for Lemmy with infinite scrolling, beautiful post presentation, video support, and animated upvotes.
• Prioritize community engagement and moderation tools. You can see it in the colors and the placement of everything—Lemmynade is about the users that make up this community. The goal is to make it simple and quick for you to post, comment, reply, and message other users in the Fediverse. Moderation tools will also get some love as well.
• Eventually release Lemmynade iOS and Android apps. Hopefully, as Lemmynade grows, I’ll be able to release iOS and Android apps. This is not a guarantee and is dependent on the success of the web version and any interest from y’all.

As you can imagine, this is a huge project and will take some time to get to a usable and polished version 1.0. For now, subscribe to this community to follow along—I’ll post updates and more sneak-peeks along the way.

I’ll be sharing more screenshots in the coming weeks as well as a link to the public alpha for you all to try. Stay tuned, and feel free to ask any questions or share ideas!

Cheers,
