It’s my, general, understanding that most people connect to the Internet through mobile apps.
If this is the case, then why have apps such as Remmel, Lemmur and jerboa taken a back seat?
IMHO, it would be a mistake to market Lemmy without these mobile apps functioning properly.
I have forked the three aforementioned mobile apps here and will try to ‘drum up’ support from developers wherever I can find them.
Please, if you don’t feel comfortable talking to me about this here, then send me a private message. Thank you.
Exactly this. Companies preferr mobile apps because it allows them to do much more user tracking push their own advertisement etc. To this end they intentionally make it difficult to use their websites in mobile browsers (see Twitter or Reddit), to force people to use apps.
Its really a dark pattern and a website like Lemmy works perfectly fine on mobile browsers.
