I haven't push anything to the App Stores yet, but you can try PieFed on the web version of Blorp.

  1. Go to https://blorpblorp.xyz/home/ in the browser
  2. Login/add account by clicking the user icon in the top right corner
  3. Select PieFed and choose a server

Likely I'll be pushing PieFed support to TestFlight next.

This might be the biggest PR I've ever written. It took a month of work and thousands of lines of code updated. There s a very high chance that random things will be a little broken, but I'll fix the bugs as I find them. That being said, it's very usable. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.

PieFed is still pretty unstable. They could push a breaking change at any point that would require me to make an app update for PieFed to work again.

There are known issues that I'm solving with the help of the PieFed devs:

  • Private messages don't load your reply messages to other users
  • Comment loading is a little broken. You will see "missing comment" a lot

I hope you like the update, and I'm pretty confident this work will unlock the next chapter for Blorp. I might even look into mbin support, no promises.

    Thanks. Having hover backgrounds for items on the sidebar would be nice to have.

    Could you describe in a little more detail what you were thinking? Or provide and example if you know an app/website that does what you’re thinking.

    Yeah, for example, when you're on the home page, the background of Home becomes background-color: var(--shad-secondary);, but I think buttons should also respond to hovering over them in a similar way. I wasn't thinking of Reddit when I made the suggestion, but Reddit has this in the CSS:

    @media (hover: hover) and (pointer: fine) {
  .hover\:bg-neutral-background-hover:hover {
    background-color: var(--color-neutral-background-hover);
  }
}
