Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.

FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta

Adding widgets is something we're interested in; we're keeping track of the feature here. Right now, it's not high on our priority list as it doesn't directly impact the core functionality of the app. Therefore, it's unlikely to happen in the next few updates, though we do plan to explore it in future.
Ok np. What sort of donation could help expedite it in the next sprint? Thanks
It is our policy not to make features-for-donations transactions, as we feel that would compromise the spirit of the project and set a dangerous precedent that could lead to development becoming beholden to the wealthiest donors. We really appreciate your enthusiasm and your generosity, though--we're going to be busy for a little while getting 2.0 up and running, but we can tentatively scope widgets for 2.1!
