This was a mobile app that stalled out last year and was officially archived in February. The only reason given is “political differences” and I’m not really sure what that means.

I’m interested in building a cross platform app (Android and Linux Mobile, maybe iOS), and am deciding on tech stack. However, before I get too deep in the weeds, I’d like a bit more information about the reasons this app was discontinued since I’d really rather not run into the same problem.

If anyone has any input, please let me know. Thanks!

    Agreed. The protocol (ActivityPub) and AFAIK the lemmy platform code itself is ‘neutral’ to such political issues. If a particular instance appears to have a distasteful agenda, we can each decide to move to another instance, or ignore it by filtering out those communities/users with which we don’t want to interact.
