I just managed to get a absolute baseline working app in avaloniaUI using this library that someone cooked up. No idea if the library is actively maintained, but uh, we’ll figure that out when we get to it.

Compared to using the site, possible advantages of a desktop are:

  1. Being able to save posts offline
  2. Client side filtering
  3. performance
  4. less data usage
  5. Not having to use your browser

Other things too, I’m sure. Just trying to gauge interest here. Also I barely know avalonia or C# so just don’t expect a polished app out by next monday.

    No, not really. It’s a website.

    Why not go the userscript route (apart from having to deal with JS which is definitely a legit reason in my book) like RES?
