Raccoon for Lemmy

Mobile client for Lemmy, a federated aggregation and discussion platform.

Raccoon for Lemmy is fully open source, and intends to offer an ad-free and as functional as possible experience on Lemmy.


In this app everyone should feel at home, so great importance is given to localization and customization of the UI.

  • possibility to upvote and downvote (with configurable swipe actions);

  • community and user detail (with info about moderators/moderated communities);

  • inbox with replies, mentions and direct messages;

  • global search with different result types (all, posts, comments, user, communities);

  • create and edit new posts (with optional images);

  • cross-post contents to other communities;

  • reply to post and comments (and edit replies);

  • custom localization (independent of system settings);

  • block users, communities and instances;

  • report post and comments to moderators;

  • support for multiple accounts with account-specific settings;

  • lazy scrolling (referred to as "zombie mode");

  • explore all the communities on a given instance in guest mode;

  • multi-community (community aggregation);
