Interstellar is officially on the Apple App Store!

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/interstellar-fediverse-client/id6745356296

It's available for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. The macOS build has not been approved yet, so give it a few days if you wish to install it.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

jwr1@kbin.earth · 1 pts · 251d

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.

Does it support multiple accounts?

jwr1@kbin.earth · 3 pts · 251d (2 replies)

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

socsa@piefed.social · 1 pts · 251d (1 reply)

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.

jwr1@kbin.earth · 1 pts · 251d

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.

Cool! Is macOS build available on homebrew?

jwr1@kbin.earth · 1 pts · 251d

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