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.

I'm pretty sure I've been running the latest version for a few days, so I don't think it was an update to the app that broke it, though it does give me some kind of update screen that I can't read because it immediately crashes.

Just thought I'd post to see what was up, since I don't see any other posts mentioning it.

Lemmy.world update issues, jerboa issues. I had an opportunity to get friends on board with lemmy yesterday but I had to stop myself. Hopefully soon I will be able to hype this platform properly.

Yeah I'm trying to get my girlfriend onto Lemmy but I want to just set her up with an app, and none of the apps are quite good enough for me to endorse without going "Well, okay, this doesn't really work for that right now..."

Have them check out wefwef. It's a browser based app that works great atm. I found it after being frustrated that all the other dedicated apps like Jerboa completely broke themselves.

I've been trying out wefwef today and it is pretty great! It seems to be missing some things (can't view community descriptions or block them?) but for just scrolling on my phone it's smoooth
