I have a recommendation. If you onboard to the Izzy on Droid repo, it has a much faster turnaround time than normal Fdroid. It's good for applications at an early stage of development.

I’ve really enjoyed it so far

Thank you so much for this effort. I’ve only installed the app this afternoon, but it’s completely usable despite the occasional bug or instability from the upstream server’s API. It’s become my go-to for Lemmy on mobile, and with all this being made available for free, you have my appreciation.

Are there plans or possibly a way I just haven't figured out, to have comment replies and DMs send push notifications/alerts and at least basic moderation tools (stickying, locking, removing posts in communities you mod in)? I think Liftoff is perfect for me, it's just missing these two things. I've worked around notifications but just having Connect in the background, but I prefer everything else about Liftoff, and no app I've seen this far on Android has tools to moderate either, so I hope it is something in the pipe.
