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.

Anytime I open up Jerboa it defaults my feed to local instances only. Any way to have it default to subscribed?

The web-ui has a setting for this and it works. Jerboa has these options in setting, but as of v0.34 they seem to be ignored... at least for some people.

  • Try setting these options in the web-ui
  • Try updating Jerboa to the latest release available to you
  • If Jerboa doesn't respect those settings, set them in the top-bar. Jerboa often remembers that even if you swipe away from that app (though it does forget occasionally)

This is a relatively frequently reported issue, I have to think that it will get addressed eventually, but the devs are maxed out fixing performance problems and existential abuse issues. Quality of life features like this will take a back seat unless a community member steps up in github with a PR and some tests.
