Ah, sorry. I didn't see that you require it to be free. It is also not open source IIRC.

There is Fork. But sadly, it is not available for Linux. Git-fork.com

[Bug] Viewing a comment (eg. from Inbox) doesn't have a "view parent" option in c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world

I agree that this should be implemented!

[Feature Request] F-Droid release in c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world

[–] syl@programming.dev 15 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Once it is released, you can use aurora store to install the app. Boost will never be released on fdroid, since it is not open source and I doubt it will ever be.

You'd probably be chasing more of it.

Is anyone actually getting notifications from Boost? in c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world

[–] syl@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

I do get Inbox notifications.

Lemmy does feel like reddit now. in c/boostforlemmy@lemmy.world

I agree with the other comments that stated that you should be the change you want to see in the world..

Lemmy does need a lil bit more content now. Engage with the users. Create posts and create comments. This is the future bro. A platform hosted by the users, for the users. You are not buying a yacht for anyone by using lemmy. On reddit however.. You use reddit and someone else gets to buy a new house..

So you made it and it was the right decision!

So, do we know what decides if a person develops to become more greedy, agressive and selfish while another becomes altruistic and doesn't care much about wealth and power? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I don't have an answer to you but if you like this sort of discussions/topics, I highly recommend the book Behave by Sapolsky.

What do you want to see more of on Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[–] syl@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

Science. I find /r/science to be one of the best subs in reddit. Not perfect, but one of the best. It would be great if those with a science background moved to lemmy.

This is an interesting question. Maybe Ruben can answer? Or Google it and see what other apps have to say.

What do you think about Lemmy, so far? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[–] syl@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

That is interesting.. I don't have the same experience, at all. Quite the opposite really.
