We're really building something here!

Downloaded Connect on Android and I'm really enjoying it. I hope to see Lemmy do well!
Is connect another way to use Lemmy?
It's an app yeah. I don't know if it'll be the best but it has the merit of being available on the play store right now. It's okay.
Yeah it's just an app on the play store for Android. I didn't know anything about it, but after using it for like a day I've gotten used to it. I migrated from RIF.
The main thing that bothers me about Connect are the 'Material You' colours. Can't figure out how to get it just black and white. So for now I'm on Jerboa.
I just have the theme set on dark mode which is what I'm used to. I haven't seen the material you stuff.
