EDIT: WE'RE BACK! We've managed to restore ownership of our original community, so we're closing this one down to submissions.

You might ask: "isn't Mlem's community on lemmy.ml?"

Not anymore!

We recently parted ways with the team member who ran most of our community outreach. The transition was unfortunately less smooth than we had hoped, and we no longer have access to our old home. (For verification that this is, indeed, the new home of Mlem, you can check our GitHub]

Rest assured that development of the app is not threatened. The core development team is intact, we're steaming towards our App Store release, and we've got some exciting updates coming down the pipeline. Stay tuned!

Any ideas when the next TestFlight invite will be available? Hoping to test Mlem on my iPad Pro.

Thanks for the great work. App already feels production ready, with performance and UX being top notch. Thanks god didn't have to be confined to mobile browser after deserting Reddit.

why not jsut tell an admin to make u own the lemmy.ml community?? 4 them it's as ez as typing in a db and they're very invested in having cool apps for lemmy so i bet they'd do it

Nice one - enjoying Mlem so far - would really like the option to switch post thumbnail images to the right side of the screen

Thanks again 😁

Great, I hope there will be a feature to block a whole instance so that I can block lemmy.ml

Give us the gossip, why do you have to switch the community?

We as a dev team agreed after several lengthy discussions that the behavior of one of our team members was incompatible with the continued smooth development of the app. He behaved as though he alone governed the project, harassed our supporters on GitHub over our licensing, and on multiple occasions muted team members in the Matrix chat when they disagreed with him. We asked him politely to step away from the project and hand over the official community and accounts, but he instead chose to make things difficult:

This sounds somewhat childish.
But happy coding guys!

Is this related to the Mlem not being technically open source but using the terminology anyway? I don’t really care but there was some drama over it
