Greetings, everyone! My name is Andres, and I am the developer of LemmyApps.com. Today, I would like to share what I have been working on for the past several months.
What is LemmyApps.com?
LemmyApps.com helps users discover Lemmy apps that best suit their needs. Whether that means apps that are open source, free, etc.
This is the first public release, so expect bugs!
What does this site offer?
- Use the API to get apps, releases and platform information.
- Sort apps by last commit, last release, downloads and many more attributes.
- Filter apps by platform, open source, free, and in-app purchases.
- Users can submit apps and update their listings with new releases easily.
- Users can claim apps and update their author profiles.
- Supports every platform and sub-platform – including lesser known stores.
- Every 6 hours, information is aggregated from GitHub, GitLab, Play Store and the App Store.
Roadmap
- [ ] More modern and responsive design
- [ ] Add filtering for specific Features
- [ ] Add product images via carousel
- [x] Support additional platforms like Codeberg
FOSS Commitment
LemmyApps.com will be FOSS soon. I am looking for a .NET developer interested in helping review the code for any security issues. Please email me at support at lemmyapps dot com.
Feedback
Please share your feedback in the comments below!
P.S. If you think the design is ugly, feel free to use the API to make a prettier website! I invite friendly competition. After all, my goal is to help spread the adoption of Lemmy apps.
You should make it so you can compare features like moderation support and other stuff
Edit: also add a claimed app option for apps claimed on your site
Edit2: also add what Lemmy/compatibles (currently only sublinks) versions are supported, with the default being only the latest selected
Looks awesome! Thanks for making this. I think it might be missing Arctic for iOS (!arctic@lemmy.world).
I’ve added this to the community sidebar as well.
Thank you for including LemmyApps in the sidebar! I am working on some new features that I can’t wait to share.
Love the idea!
It’d be cool if there was a way to compare features, too. Otherwise all this is really going to do is direct people to the one with the most stars. Screenshots of the UI would be cool too.
Awesome, thanks for doing this!
This is phenomenal!
I noticed that Eternity has some mistakes - perhaps because the source is on Codeberg rather that Github?
Edit: I’ve also noticed that the “latest release” includes pre-release candidates. Is that by design?
Great!
Thank you! Please let me know if you have any ideas for improvement. I aim to make big development strides in the coming weeks/months.
Hello,
Coming back with a very specific request: would it be possible to show which apps support cross-posts and moderation tools?
Hello! I just included “Cross post” as a filter on the website. To show apps that support Cross-Posting or Mod log (tools), deselect the other filters under the “Features” column.
I am planning a front-end rewrite in React or another UI framework to be more reactive and modern. If you have any suggestions, I am all ears. Thank you!
By the way, someone just told me that apparently now Thunder support crossposts!
Ah, thank you! I updated Thunder to reflect this new feature.
Thanks!
Wow, amazing, thank you!
That’s nice. Any way to donate via XMR?
Hello! I included addresses for both BTC and XMR in the original description. Thank you for considering supporting the project!
The link on Memmy for the Play Store leads to Voyager.
Ah, good catch! Memmy is an iOS only app. Will fix soon.
Also, Memmy is shown as having a recent commit 23 days ago - this commit was created by a bot here, and isn’t actually indicative of active development. It may be worth ignoring commits from depandabot when checking for the most recent commit, if that’s possible.
