Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
- We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.
FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- The TestFlight link is here, though we can't guarantee there will be room left--Apple imposes a strict 10,000 tester limit.
- How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

MODERATORS
I have never known a third-party reddit app that had an option to delete your actual account.
The App Store requirements are extremely clear that if you have an option to create an account in-app, you need to also offer the option to delete it. According to our app reviewer (and, I reluctantly admit, the text of the requirements), even just linking to a sign-up site like join-lemmy is sufficient to require in-app deletion.
Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I don’t think reddit ever allowed third-party apps to create apps, so they must have made sure not to direct users to sign up on reddit, lest they fall afoul of Apple’s rules.
Edit: hilarious typo, I meant accounts but I guess they don’t let them make apps anymore either…
I'm with @Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca on this one. You can't expect an essay accompanying the delete action. There is nothing unclear about delete.
It doesn’t need to be an essay. Delete actions often have second warnings. An ‘Are you Sure? This will permanently delete your account from xyz.com.” with a Yes/No might be all that’s needed.
Yes! That’s all I was asking for
