Is there an up-to-date and, most importantly, good desktop app for Lemmy? My instance is having issues with the web frontend at the moment, it’d be nice to have a backup. Ubuntu 25.04, if that matters.

There’s this apps doc. From there I see in addition to others’ comments:
Both being Go based apps. but the neonmodem looks more interesting to me.
Another option is a hybrid one, to add the rss feeds from the lemmy communities your’re interested in, or the rss feed from all of them together into your feed reader (even better if newsraft), but those feeds don’t show full lemmy conversations and one has to show them in the browser, and also if in need to comment or post one still need to use the browser.
apps doc is constantly evolving, so it’s good to keep an eye on it periodically, :)
Neonmodem looks really cool and support multiple backend. TUI is cool and definitely earns its place. Excellent for my old laptop.
But on the other hands, I wish we have a proper complicated non electron liked desktop gui. My browser probably has 1000+ tabs. So able to open multiple threads are must. But building this sophisticated desktop app is hard. I am really being spoiled by open source apps. And I am always thankful to devs’ hardwork.
