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.

it has become second nature to open Jerboa instead of Infinity and I love that (beehaw.org)

I've always wondered why no one ever talks about Infinity. I tried every 3rd party reddit app and I always thought Infinity was superior. Mostly because of the sheer amount of customization it allows me to do.

It truly is the best reddit client. I wish it would get a lemmy transition.

I'm hoping for a transition from Boost! for Reddit, personally. That was the client I enjoyed using.

My problem is that I'm also using kbin, and kbin's API is disabled so it makes more sense for everyone to make a Lemmy app instead. Don't know if they'll bother to implement kbin support once it's up and running.

I used Infinity when I was on Android. The developer said that he's gotta job-hunt (as someone pointed out, the fact that people prefer the app written by a single person who is now looking for a junior developer job over the official one that Reddit had a whole team to work on is a bit embarrassing) and doesn't have plans to add Fediverse support, but also that it's open source.

I imagine that if someone wants to do so badly enough, they could add Fediverse support.

Infinity was/is great.

Unfortunately the dev doesn't seem interested in making an app for lemmy...

Infinity is the 💩. I hope the devs port it to work with Lemmy

I tried both infinity and boost and I prefer boost
