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.

Thank you so much to all the contributors. This new user is very pleased with his new home on Jerboa/Lemmy !!
The in-app image viewer is such a welcome feature!
thank you all for your hard work and contributions to making our experience on Lemmy so nice
that first time committer list is fire!
Yeah, the number of skilled android devs contributing now is unreal. We're gonna loop past A LOT of reddit apps in two weeks at this rate.
How long does FDroid usually take to show the update?
F-droid can be like a week, but izzyondroid should take less than a day.
I don't have patience, I just grabbed the apk from the github page...
Same, I did have to remove the older version installed via f-droid before installation of the apk from GitHub would succeed though. That was when I updated from 0.0.31 to 0.0.32. Updating to 0.0.33 then worked without uninstalling anything. Liking it so far!

Thanks for all the hard work! Jerboa is better in alpha than the official Reddit app ever was (or likely will be).
Its no probs. This one was all volunteer contributions by skilled android developers who just want to make the fediverse better. I'm extremely grateful to all of them.
a few days i use jerboa daily : it's not perfect but i can deal with all the restrictions
But i really miss an option to make all post as 'read' with a single button Just a suggestion for the next release. Thank you for your great work
Open up an issue on the github if there isn't one already if you would.
A great update!
Wish the image viewer would work in small card and list view. Is this a bug, or intentional?
Thanks to all the contributors!
That decision to lay a solid foundation for an Android app really bearing fruit right now. Thanks for all the hard work and thanks to all the new contributors.
I've been incredibly impressed at how fast the Jerboa team is working to catch up with the influx of new users and issues. Massive thanks for all the work getting done!
Thanks for all your and contributors hard work. I've signed up for your Patreon and hope to see this platform flourish.
On my iOS device in Mlem. Can’t find any way to save. Commenting to access on my Android device later lol
You can just click save comment, it'll show up in jerboa.
I wasn't finding the option to save within Mlem lol. Regardless, I'm back on the Android device and updated to the github release

I'm not sure but is there a bug of buttons not showing under comments in the inbox? I can't manage to open comments in their context

Nvm. I was dumb. Loving the update!
Nice update. I'm glad I can now add a community from any instance regardless of if it's in the list or not.
Thanks for this! I just got into Lemmy/jerboa recently and was about to file some issues on github. But you fixed my them already :D
Hi, for some reason after I log in Jerboa seems to forget who I am and asks me to login again.
I'm so glad that white flash you used to get when switcing tabs is gone.
That's weird, still happens for when switching to basically anything. Like starting this comment for example!
Are you sure you're on the latest version (0.0.33)? Maybe it wasn't updated yet. You can go to the play store and check.
I get it from f-droid rather than the play store and I did see the 0.0.33-alpha changelog on update earlier today so I would have expected to be on that version. Having said that the "What's new" link still says 0.0.32 which could be just a bad processing of the version number but maybe the f-droid version isn't right. Not sure. Still getting th flashes basically all the time.
Could it have something to do with your phone being set to light/dark mode? I'm not seeing the white flash.
Much easier to collapse comments now. Thanks!
I actually hate it, I keep doing it by accident. T
Yeah, in Boost, I used a long press to hide comment, it was harder to do accidentally.

Is there any way to change instance on Jerboa?
If you have an account on the other instance it's very easy, add the account and you can switch between them in like two button presses, if you want to migrate your account to a new instance, it's currently not possible

The user experience is great for me. Terrific app even in alpha.
How long does it take for new versions to show up in Fdroid?
F-droid, about a week. Izzyondroid, about a day.
I just downloaded the APK from GitHub and it let me update it from the .32 version I installed via Izzyondroid - from the limited knowledge I have it's because the fingerprint of the apps are the same.
Does this mean it won't be an issue when Izzyondroid has .33, i.e. it will detect I've already installed it?
Thanks for all your hard work by the way. A good quality app is such an important thing to have in place to get people to use Lemmy. Reddit works perfectly fine on desktop via RES but the reality is most people browse it on their phone, hence all the drama at the moment.
