Boost for Lemmy is happening!
(lemmy.world)
It looks amazing on the preview images.
This was my fav reddit app. Used it for years. Very excited!
Most excellent, cannot wait!!
Awesome pawsome
"Contains ads" no thank you
Boost has always had ads, it's one time purchase removal
If it's anything like Boost for Reddit was, it's unnoticeable. Every 20 or so posts you'll see an ad and just scroll past, no animations or sound. I think I recall seeing a bottom banner? Any other Boost users confirm? I really just ignored it so I can't recall.
My point is, ads were non-obstructive

No waaaaay! The dev said it's not happening, I'm so glad to see he's actually doing it!
I am really excited for this one . Always loved boost .
I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.
I used Boost to browse reddit. I'm definitely getting this when it's out.
Thank you Ruben!
It seems like the future for Lemmy is pretty bright with all these amazing apps switching over.
It's a shame that Christian decided to not develop Apollo for Lemmy for the time being. I bet that would also convince a fair share of users to abandon ship.
Can't wait. Boost is my most used app on Android and this will be great.
Nice, Boost was my reddit app of choice
I am incredibly happy to see this. Boost has been my absolutely favorite choice for a very long time
we're up for a treat folks!!
It‘ll be great to see that icon on my screen again! This is amazing!
I think I currently have 3 Lemmy apps on my phone, currently enjoying Liftoff... But will be VERY likely to go back to Boost if to works On Lemmy :)
Nice! Really hoping BaconReader follows suit soon as well 👍🏻
I am super duper excited!
Test
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!
Great news! I loved boost for reddit.
I still can't believe spez did this. And continues to do this. What a prick
Actually if this causes decentralized social media to get more popular we should be thankful lol

Wow.. I just uninstalled Boost after midnight. Looks like it will be back soon :)
This is great! I was so sad when Rubén.said he wouldn't develop boost for lemmy. I think he did create a community as a kind of placeholder, so maybe i should go find it again
That UI....my god it's gorgeous. This is going to be a game changer for Lemmy.
I really like Lemmy so far even though it isn’t perfect yet. Adding a 3rd party app will make using this even easier.
