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.

Thanks for the app! Just starting with lemmy. Are there any alternatives etc.? I liked the Infinity reddit app particularly.

Lemmy is really new, so I'm pretty sure Jerboa is the only app currently.

That said, development is ongoing, and I heard someone was developing a reddit api-like toolfor lemmy, so the old reddit apps will work with lemmy. I don't know how true that is though, unfortunately. It would be awesome if true.

Yeah. Reusing infinity seems cool.

Thanks. Thought lemmy was around for pretty long. How it compares to mastodon which i heard was around for years? Or that would be a different beast..

I've been registered on Lemmy for ~2 years now. It went from this place where a few people chatted, to getting federation, then integrating with Mastodon, then they started working on an Android app, things were really chill.

Then last month it got 100x more popular, and it feels like a third of all Lemmy development happened this month too
