Developing this app has been one of the best development experiences I've had, and I feel very privileged and happy to have been able to contribute to Lemmy in this way. Nothing is more motivating than seeing so many people already enjoying the app and providing suggestions and feedback.

I really hope you enjoy Avelon, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what everyone thinks. Keep the feedback coming!

Thank you, Sigve Rokenes

This app went from I hate the icon and won’t even look at it to moving on my homepage with this last update. Community grouping was the one thing that I’ve been chasing and Bean ad implemented it but not in a clean way. Avelon came second but did it right! Also the new app icons are so much nicer than the default. Last thing it needs is push notifications.

Also, the paid plan feels like it’s very intrusive in the regular use of the app in free mode and gets frustrating. Maybe let some functions available to free users to get them to stay instead of pay walling all the good stuff. Or give a 7 day trial or something.
