Hi, I started this project after leaving Reddit and being dissatisfied with the current Lemmy apps. I wanted a browsing experience similar to what I was used to and I hope others who are in a similar situation will enjoy Connect.

Used to work great, a recent update either to lemmy or to Connect has made it, so I can't post to any communities tho. Kinda defeats the purpose.

Jumped to this app when Reddit came up with their API nonsense, and have tried several other Lemmy apps since. This one has just stuck with me as the one I prefer the most. The only thing I'd like is an in-app browser for opening webpages, otherwise it's pretty solid.

Search is badly broken both in terms of interface and actual results. For instance "game engine" returns 0 results even though Unity is a huge story atm. And I only searched that because "unity" returns results for "community". Lemmy is so fractured it's unusable without search.

It worked great for a while but now no media content shows up in the posts anymore, and I miss out on the context that's being discussed in the comments because I can't see what everyone else does who are using different clients.

Captcha is unreadable. I tried to create an account and cannot read the captchas, their design makes them illegible. I actually hit the limit of attempts because of refreshing the captchas so many times because I couldn't find one I could make out clearly lol, so I FAILED TO REGISTER.
★☆☆☆☆Armin Drago· Mar 2, 2026
Worked until 2 days ago. I'm getting a strange error when I try to opet the app: type 'String' is not a subtype of type 'int?' in type cast. Maybe the last update broke the app on some devices?
