Edit 1: After I made this post I looked for the app everywhere, turns out the developer removed it from Fdroid and Google Play Store and even deleted the community.

I guess the client is done.

That's very unfortunate. Open source development can seem like a thankless job sometimes... you start out building something because it's fun, or you want to challenge yourself, or learn something new... and then other ppl start making demands, those start to pile on, and it quickly becomes a stressful job.

Sorry to see that app go, it had a lot of potential.

It definitely had potential. Was my main driver for Lemmy. It had the best layout of posts, modern and sleek handling, etc. Markdown worked just fine for me. The minor bugs I noticed didn't bother me much. Am sad to see it implode like this... hope the dev will change his mind or someone will pick up the pieces.
