  • <3 wow it is a big coincidence! i wish your lemmy client app becomes very famous :D

    Awww thanks!! <3

    is it an ios app?

    Yes, eventually. I’m developing in react native (one codebase, many platforms). I own an Android though, so all physical testing is on this phone. Therefore, all alphas and stuff like that are being built for Android for now. Unfortunately, building and testing for iOS is a massive pain in the ass. I think I would have to take the help of some iOS dev for this in the future/get an old iPhone or something.

    do you want to share the link if it is available for everyone to download?

    Aww thanks for the interest! It’s not ready enough imo to share it publicly for now. However, it’s getting there quickly! Can’t wait for the day I can share the repo link on the Lemmy app development communities!



  • thank you so much for the suggestions; do you know if there is a way to use Organic Maps on iphone?

    No worries <3! Isn’t it on the App store? On looking it up, it shows that it’s available here. I don’t know though, as I don’t own any Apple devices.

    I did use LibreOffice many years ago … i should give it a try once again.

    Definitely! I’m a sucker for the native gtk apps. So I may be a little biased when I say this, but it’s WAY better than Microsoft office from a UI standpoint. All Microsoft products just feel cheap to me.

    also, you have no idea how happy you made me by giving me my first comment on my first lemmy post!!

    Awww I’m so glad haha. Guess what? I’m developing a Lemmy client app right now, and this is the first “real” comment I made which was outside the pure test oriented comments! Interesting firsts, eh?












  • Please fuck off. I really want to believe that you are just ignorant and mean well, but still. It’s hard being polite.

    I am gay, and I have known it even before I knew what the word “gay” meant. Being gay doesn’t just mean “ooo I wanna fuck that manly ass so much, ooo I wanna suck dick”. Does being straight mean “pussy pussy I want pussy”? No. It can mean having romantic feelings for your male best friend, really liking to look at a male celeb for a very long time cuz they just “look pretty” and so on.

    I was surrounded by homophobes who constantly denounced being homosexuality. I had to spend my entire childhood feeling that there was something terribly wrong with me. This was until I actually discovered the LGBTQ community. I understood that I was not the only “freak” like this in the world. I understood that I could live a nice and beautiful life as a gay dude.

    If I was exposed to the concept of homosexuality in childhood (the fact that something like this even exists, and that you’re not a freak for being gay in case you think you are), then my childhood would’ve been a lot better.

    The same goes with gender identity. I’m cis, so I won’t be able to give a very good description of what it’s like being trans, but from what I’ve understood from my trans friends, it’s pretty similar.

    Why should kids have to suffer for not being cis n straight? Conservatives make it seem as if kids are being taught how to fellatio Jeffery Epstein or something. Kids do need to know about concepts like these (them being sexuality, gender identity, etc.) so that they can protect themselves from going down the spiral of self hatred.





  • I think many might reference the Uyghur genocide + extreme authoritarianism to explain why they call China fascist. I personally, am not educated on the persecution of the Uyghur genocide part, so I’m not so sure.

    But China definitely has hints of nationalism and “former glory” or whatever when they start talking about Taiwan and the South China Sea. Sooo ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
