I’m extremely excited to announce Echo for Lemmy. This is a project I’ve dedicated all of my free time to for the past little bit, and it has come such a long way. Although there is still a lot of work to do, I’m excited to share this alpha version and get feedback from the community.

Key Features:

  • Intuitive, beautiful design
  • Timeline that provides key information about posts
  • Upvote, downvote, and comment on posts just by swiping
  • Threaded comment support
  • Blocking & Reporting support
  • Support for every timeline sort option
  • Share Extension to create posts from other apps
  • And much more

How to Join:

Please keep in mind that this is currently a closed alpha program. Things might not be perfect. Bugs exist. It’s not feature complete. However, it’s a great start, and after using it myself, I think it’s ready to be shared with the community.

I truly believe in the community aspect of Lemmy and the Fediverse. Your feedback will help shape this application, and I’m excited to hear what you think.

If you would like to join the alpha program, please fill out this form, and I’ll be sending out invites as soon as possible. I expect the first wave of invites to be sent out this week. Then be sure to subscribe to our Lemmy community to stay up to date on the latest news, ask questions, leave feedback, and more.

How to Report Feedback:

I will be compiling feedback from the following sources. Please feel free to use any of these to report feedback.

All constructive feedback is welcome. Please note, that nonconstructive feedback may result in removal from the alpha program.

    Oh wow. Actually didn’t know that. I’ll research that some more. Just to be perfectly clear, this app only posts data to your Lemmy server. It retrieves a few configuration details from a remote file (but that request doesn’t include any PII, except for your IP address, which I personally don’t log). Will definitely look into this more. Thanks for the info.
