Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

I'd use jerboa but it just crashes all the time. Hangs, deletes comments and just isn't up to scratch yet. So far tildes and kbin have been best die me. I jump around on all the Lemmy's but can't get my head around how to follow some subs.

Just trying to recreate my reddit feeds.

The issue isn't Jerboa but rather the server you're on is dying from too many users. Next Lemmy version (which hopefully will come out before the end of the month) is expected to fix a lot of problems

Looking forward to it. I'm on different Lemmy's though. Is that right ?

[–] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yup, all the Lemmy servers use the same version (minus some semantics). If you played Minecraft before, you can imagine it like that - Mojang (people behind Minecraft) release a new version, and all the servers update to it

Unfortunately never played it. I do.not understand the instances and different Lemmy's. Makes sense they all use the server. Probably would be good idea to have them separated as we know centralized can be corrupted.

I use kbin as well. Does that pull from Lemmy ? Kbin and Lemmy world seem to work far better than the jerboa app. I'm just pinging around them. Have tried tildes too but it's invite only.

I've definitely experienced all of that. But they're growing pains I'm sure!
