How’s this app nowadays? Still usable and in development?

Community seems not really alive unfortunately, saw the last post was from 2 months ago.

    Still same build from forever ago. Top apps now are voyager/arctic/thunder. Web apps like photon/lemmynade/alexandrite right behind.

      Ohh that’s unfortunate, was curious whether it would be worth trying the premium out for 2 euro.

      Yeah, currently using Voyager which works like charm. However Avelon has the groups things and from what I can remember easier search for the top communities.

      I’m surprised the Avelon app has not been more developed (or at least maintained) while the person charges €30 for life time.

        Yeah. I purchased the lifetime as I loved where it was headed. Same for Bean. Not sure of any others with groups/multireddit type features but lemmynades community search is pretty nice.

        A workaround for groups could be multi accounts in voyager and just long press on the center tab for quick switching.

    Development seems to have stopped and I started noticing a bunch of bugs. It was the best lemmy app IMO. But now it’s just average. I’ve switched to Artic which has more features and not buggy.

    It’s a shame. I did pay for lifetime, and that’s always a risk. Looks like this bet didn’t pay off. The money doesn’t bother me - more the fact that there isn’t a portrait-only Lemmy app that’s a good replacement. If anyone knows of one that’s as good and will stay in portrait without having to put the whole phone in portrait lock, please let me know…
