A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I wish I liked jerboa more as an app, the fact that I cant hold to hide comments, the fact that opening comments in my inbox requires more than just clicking on the comment, how tricky it is to sub to communities from multiple instances -- it's just really fidgety and I wish that a smoother app existed. But it's good enough for the time being
It will get better. We're in basically the large scale beta test right now. It's not like they could have seen this Reddit drama coming when it did. There's devs hard at work, but there's a lot on their plate. Give them some time.
Try clicking on a comment instead of holding.
Clicking? Tapping?
Yeah. Tapping a comment hides it!
Hi! Just passing to say they added that feature two updates ago, and are adding more and more features, last update was huge and the devs seem like really taking input from users and collaborators to introduce new QoL changes. Maybe check it a little bit further down the road, I totally get what you mean in the suscribing part.
I agree about the missing quality of life around comments and the inbox, but in what way is subbing to communities from other instances difficult? I've just been typing keywords into the search bar and have had no issue subscribing to any communities, no matter what instanc they are hosted on.
if you click on a link to an instance iirc it opens that instance in your web browser rather than displaying it by way of your instance, allowing you to subscribe to it. It's strange
I started using Lemmy/Jerboa two days ago and have been able to navigate to communities outside of my instance while staying in the app. Maybe it was a recent update?
Mlem, the iOS equivalent, does the same thing. I wonder if it's a limitation of how the fediverse is structured?
I'm embarrassed to admit how long it took me to find the search function in Jerboa. I almost never click the communities list tab so I never noticed it had the search.
Yeah, I found it completely by accident
