Any one know what happened to Raccoon For Lemmy?

ModerateImprovement@sh.itjust.works to Open Source@lemmy.ml – 113 points – Build software better, together
github.com

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.

from de goodbye post by the dev of Raccoon for Lemmy:

Different apps are built with different technologies: Jerboa uses Markwon for Markdown rendering, Raccoon uses multiplatform-markdown-renderer, Thunder uses flutter_markdown, etc.

You are not comparing the apps, you are comparing the rendering libraries we (apps' developers) did not even write ourselves.

App was being judged for the 3rd party library that was implemented

Your question:

How did the dev even deal with other bug reports?

Very well, it was faster than The Concorde, everyone that ever contacted him can confirm that right away

The last part is the most sad part, I felt he really loved working on it. It must have felt like cutting off an arm for him to let it go.
