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.

Is there any way to give more importance to small communities on the home page? (lemmy.zip)

I'm subscribed to several dozens communities, but on the main page they usually appear the same ones over and over (except when sorting by "New").

On Reddit I grouped them by topic and the weight of giant communities was diluted and I believe there was some sort of algorithm too.

But, is there any way to give more importance to posts coming from smaller communities on Lemmy from Jerboa?

Maybe add a weight to each community based on its activity relative to the user's other subscriptions, and use that when creating the feed. I really need to dive into the codebase..
