After a long silence from the developer, project moderators stepped down. The mobile app for Kbin appears to have closed its doors.

Artemis was a promising mobile app for Kbin, with a dedicated community, a rapid pace of development, and a high level of polish. Then, the developer disappeared.

    Kbin didn’t haven’t an API so they were using screen scrapers. I assumed they were waiting for a proper API rollout. But who knows now.

      Yeah, they apparently used scrapers for a while, but it’s obviously not a very performant way to do things. Artemis Camp was launched with an upstream branch that introduced API work, and the app was adjusted to use that as a playground.
