Last updated
Connect is a Flutter Lemmy client that also speaks Piefed. Private databases hold sessions, drafts and media cache under the kuroneko package. Timelines stay on instances. The local store keeps login state and UI prefs. It cannot move follows by itself.
The ID embeds the developer name. Fresh logins are the normal path after reinstall. Clearing the folder while the app runs logs you out. Media cache rebuilds on next launch. Check the instance list inside the app after login to confirm the sync.
