Been building out this application with some features I’ve always wanted in other readers. Like that experience shown when viewing comment threads and some others. Few more key components are left, like accounts and mod view.

But was wondering what everyone’s thoughts are and whether they like this design approach.

You are viewing a single thread.

Very interesting take on thread browsing! I’m not sure if I caught it in the video, but do you have to click on the parent comment to view the children comments in the breakout viewer? Or can you still view threads like normal (Apollo style, if you will).

I’d prefer a both/and approach. Perhaps Apollo-style as the default with the ability to pop out a thread (as you’ve done here) if I really want to zero in on it.

Really great work. I’ll be following this closely

Thank you for the feedback and kind words!

I only have it pop out for now. But I can add the normal apollo style experience. I can make it an option in settings and/or add a gesture to trigger each. Like a long press gesture for pop out but single tap for the other

Hey there, I finally feel the application has reached a relatively stable state. So wanted to share the TF link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/owwIagmV and open source repo: https://github.com/neatia/Loom for more details! Hoping to make another post sometime soon when all the base functionalities are implemented (Mod mode, etc)
