Hello everyone, I recently started working on a Gtk client for Lemmy written in Rust, called Lemoa and the awesome Relm4 crate.

So far, it supports most of the basic things that do not require a login, like viewing trending posts, browsing communities, viewing profiles, etc... Login features are planned to become added within the next one or two weeks, so that Lemoa can be used as a replacement for the web UI on a desktop.

Screenshot of an example community page:

Id you want to feel free to already try it at "alpha stage" (installation instructions are in the Readme).

Feedback and any kind of contributions welcome!

PS: I'm sorry if that's the wrong place to post about it, I didn't know where else to.

Hi there! First off--this looks awesome! Thanks for making it! Do you need any help with anything? I'm not a slouch at Rust and would love to see a desktop client for Lemmy that everyone can use! Is there anything you need help with testing? Dev? Docs?

Hey, thanks for your interest! What's probably needed the most currently is someone spending some time to get all the things that require authentication done, but of course other things like adding screenshots to the README, adding CI via GitHub actions, etc would be useful too! :)
