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.

What does a pending subscription mean? (self.jerboa)

I made a new account on a different instance and tried to subscribe to this community on the new account, but it just says 'Pending' rather than joined. It's not clear from the app what is pending. Or how long it should take

It seems more concerning that it is a symptom of federation failure. It may get you the local messages, but it also is a sign of how data is not flowing reliably between your local Lemmy instance and the remote instance that is hosting the community. If you are the first one to join a community, it may not have registered with the remote - and posts/comments may not be flowing.

Of greater concern is that if small updates like this aren't making it between Lemmy instances, how many comments are missing? Set Github bug on evidence of missing comments: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3101
