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.

My understanding is that an app needs to register the URLs it wants to try to open before it can open them. This means Jerboa world need to manually add each link as new instances pop up.

This has already been done with many major instances. If you go to your phone's Settings, then go Apps>Default Apps>Opening Links>Jerboa (or something similar, may change depending upon your phone manufacturer) you'll see a checklist of all currently registered links. Check those, and Jerboa will start opening those links.
