Thanks for the heads up. I just pre-registered

I'm stoked, I was sad because I was going to uninstall Boost for Reddit today. Glad to see Boost will still live!

That's also not a FOSS app, is it

Nice. Jerboa is inspired by it, but it's nowhere even close to Boost yet.

Yo boost was the shit when so was on android. I really hope Apollo does the same thing.

[–] ndr@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I haven't seen many other fans of both Boost and Apollo!

[–] kento999999@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Holy shit yes, nice!

[–] adamantris@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

[–] WidowsFavoriteSon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

God I love to see this. What gifts, all these apps! I've used 4 so far and they all rock. I can't make up my mind.

[–] al52025@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I love how a day ago he said he wasn't going to make an app and then changed his mind that quick. So damn excited!

Is this real??? He said he wasn't going to do this 🤔

He said he would not be doing Boost for Lemmy, and that he would focus on smaller apps:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BoostForReddit/comments/14ehiqs/comment/jow1le5

And he only registered the Lemmy community to prevent impersonation:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BoostForReddit/comments/14ehiqs/comment/jouvuok

I wonder if he put this on the store as a placeholder to also prevent impersonation?


EDIT: Damn, just saw the screenshots. Either this is a very elaborate placeholder, or it's really happening!

[–] rjc@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Boom! This made my ~~day~~ weekend. Wish I could give a post gold.

[–] Mohkia@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Sweet! Another one! I'm just over here collecting apps to try with lemmy! This is exciting!

[–] sserdarth@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I've been kind of expecting this move from a community person like Mr. Mayayo. I'm going to launch the rocket in a heart beat !

[–] 123Opie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Boost was my favorite android client so happy to hear this! Now using a iPhone tho
