Hi Boost gang,
The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.
Thanks for your patience!
Thank you for developing this app! Being able to use Boost again has felt like being right at home. Your UI/UX design is just amazing, and I’ve sorely missed it since Reddit’s whole thing happened.
🎉🚀
Now that’s a seamless switch between platforms!
Ad-free already purchased!
One feature that’d be nice to have is the ability to add other instances as guest accounts.
I’ve never used Boost before and it’s auto downloaded today. I’m so happy to try it. Looks great so far.
Heyyyy! I dunno when the app installed, but I just noticed it in my app drawer. So glad I registered for the download.
Thanks for putting in the effort to move over to Lemmy. I greatly appreciate it and immediately slammed the no ads purchase. When I can ill toss a few bucks to fuel up that rocket ship.
Love you dude <3
Live long and prosper
When someone replies to your comments, you get a notification. But clicking the notification takes you to the ‘mentions’ tab, instead of the ‘replies’ tab
Fixed for the next version. Thanks!
When I tap on a linked community, it opens in webview/browser rather than within the app
Just autodownloaded and so glad to be back to a familiar interface
Hi! When I try to add a second account (in fact this account that I am posting from now), I always get an “incorrect login” error. I have triple checked that the login information is correct – also I can log into this account on other lemmy apps and on desktop. If it helps, the first account I have logged into using Boost is on a different instance than the second account.
Anyway, I want to also say thank you, Ruben! I loved Boost for Reddit and I am loving Boost for Lemmy!
Also just had this issue, with account on a different instance
Babe wake up, Boost for Lemmy just dropped

Yeah, opening links a bit tricky. I have to work on it.

For some reason I’m unable to pay to remove ads but I believe it might be a Google issue. Loving the app so far though!
Feels like home, have used Boost for absolutely years, so glad it’s here for Lemmy now too

Hey all, I may be missing something obvious, but is it possible to add an account for an instance not in the pre-made list?
I would love to know this too.
Edit: yes, you can. Just type in the URL yourself in the instance box. No need to select from the list.
Maybe I’m doing it wrong, I typed the full URL and it just told me it failed. Hmm…
When you say full url do you mean like the www and https tags at the start? Or just something like startrek.website
I’ve tried all variations I could think of, http://, https://, just www., and with nothing at all.
I either get an unknown error has occurred message (www.) or login failed (everything else).
Thanks @rmayayo@lemmy.world (testing how I can mention at users in Lemmy lol). Loved the app before, and this reincarnation is why I’m even in Lemmy right now in the first place. Already bought ad-free and also put some extra fuel in the rocket! 🚀
Edit: testing mention again, since I didn’t see it become a link in my comment: @rmayayo
for some reason it doesn’t become a link like the !imaginarytrains@lemm.ee syntax does (although it does in most apps), but it does notify the recipient (the first syntax, including both @'s)
