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.

"Multireddit" functionality? (self.jerboa)

Is there currently any way to create feeds like multireddits out of particular subscriptions? I'm missing my news/world news/politics multi!

it would be neat if you could not only group communities together, but also post to that "multireddit" and have the post appear on every community included in it. that way you can have a grouping of all the tech coms for example and not have to repost to each one manually.

I see the point, but there's no way that wouldn't be exploited for spam.

Maybe an upper limit, global or per instance, would help against that, and/or an opt out option for communities/instances?

I'm sorry but that's a horrible idea. What if I didn't group any of those communities into a multilemmy. So now I have to look at the same exact post multiples times? That's super cross-posting, which is in of itself just "legal" reposting to begin with.

I think this defeats the entire point of having separate instances. We need to start thinking of each instance's community as a separate space, not duplicates or mirrors of each other.
