Great news. I really like the way interstellar handles cross posts, which is something it seems to do better than voyager.



I cannot see the link from Finland app store

@alevalv @jwr1

Same for app store in Poland

Thank you guys, I have figured out the issue and addressed it!

I can’t tell if it will automatically become available in the missing countries or if we have to wait till the next update. I’ll check back in a day and let you know the status.

@jwr1 @alevalv Thanks for your efforts. I can confirm that Interstellar is now available in the App Store in Poland. I just installed it 👍 Btw, I recently updated the Polish translation.

Do you plan on making it use native widgets and styles?

I’ve thought about it before, but I don’t have any plans at the moment, as there are other things to focus on for now.



Congratulations! Getting App Store approval is a pain. Well done!

Thank you, and yes, it was absolutely awful, lol!

And it was super costly too; I had to buy a whole mac computer just to compile for Apple devices, not to mention the $100/year developer fee as well. You can tell Apple isn’t trying to have good DX. I’m sure you had a similar process as well though.



this is awesome news. i think i still like blorp better.


Cool! Is macOS build available on homebrew?

No, but I definitely wouldn’t mind looking into adding it at some point.



Does it support multiple accounts?

Yes, you can sign into (or browse anonymously) with as many Mbin/Lemmy/PieFed accounts as you want.

Would you be open to the idea of allowing a user to select different default posting and voting accounts? Piefed used to have semi-anonymous voting agents and it was the best feature of the platform, but the main dev removed the feature because of silly forum politics. I keep thinking it would be a great function to just have via the app instead to restore a pretty important privacy guard.

Yeah, I would be open to it. I’ve thought before it would nifty to have a “super up vote” feature that up votes a post with multiple accounts at the same time, and I think what you suggested would be implemented similarly.
