I hope this isn’t a question that’s already been asked to death, in app search for “mbin” isn’t all that helpful.

I’m still in the stages of looking for a permanent home here in the fediverse. So far mbin has really caught my eye because it’s basically Lemmy+ for all intents and purposes (at least for mine). I’m not all that happy with what looks like the only Android app though.

So I was wondering if there were any plans to add mbin functionality to any existing Lemmy apps? Even if I used a Lemmy app solely for the ‘Threads’ or Lemmy section of mbin, then used the web page or only mbin app for everything else, I would be fine with that.

I tried to see if I could sign in with the app that I’m currently using (Eternity), with the kbin.earth instance and no luck. So obviously the API is just that much different.

Are any devs here thinking of expanding their apps in future? Or is there one I’ve missed? I’ve seen more than one app with the description “For Lemmy and the Fediverse”, but what exactly is meant by “and the Fediverse” is unclear.

    Update: not entirely sure what else to try but one thing I’ve tried now is disabling the global dark theme in my settings as well as Firefox (aargh my eyes). This seems to make no difference either. I even switched to the “Trans Pride” theme and it remains the same. The only settings that I’ve modified in accessibility is to make text size smaller.

    If you have any suggestions of what to try, I’d be happy to. Otherwise I’ve been needing an excuse to start over on this device. So a reflash might be in order.

        It’s all good. Thank you for taking the time out to try and help out here. And for being involved in building cool platforms for people to get together. You guys behind the scenes here in this indie web (or whatever you may call it) are heroes for giving us alternatives to turn to for our Sonic the Hedgehog shitposts and whatnot. Now more than ever.

        I’ll report back if there’s any difference when I get things sorted on my phone. Which is going to be a little bit of a job, so I’m not going to get it done now at 23:04. But it needs to be done.
