For the past day or so every time I try to open Jerboa it just crashes immediately without an error message why. Is there any scheduled update/fix for Jerboa? I'd like to be able to browse on mobile again and really enjoyed the app while it was working.

It's not working for me. So I switched to Liftoff.

Same. Won't let me log in. Liftoff is fantastic though!

I already have Thunder, Connect, Summit, Liftoff and Jerboa. I just thought I would play with all of them for a few weeks until I find the one I like best.

How you like them so far? Anything you are partial about?

[–] ki77erb 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They're all pretty early in development so they have their bugs but so far I like Liftoff and Thunder the best. They both have a great UI. Jerboa was the one I started with first but now I am not able to login because of the whole lemmy.world version number thing.

[–] B4tid0 2 points 2 years ago

I see. Imma go and try liftoff and thunder then , thanks you very much.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Not OP but I did the same. Tbh none of them are perfect, they still have all kinds of quirks and bugs. But new versions are coming out all the time. Today Jerboa and Connect were working better than the others. Tomorrow who knows. 😄

You should also check out wefwef. It's very full-featured already and is getting updated constantly.

[–] ki77erb 1 points 2 years ago

I did it. It just looks very specifically designed in the style of iOS. It's not bad though.

[–] Fauxaly 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just installed liftoff to try it out and unfortunately have to say that I like the layout even BETTER than Jerboa!

I feel a weird sense of loyalty to Jerboa because it was my first app for Lemmy but I might actually like Liftoff better.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I changed some settings to make it look better to me. I'm happiest with liftoff right now.

[–] sirtwinklebottom 9 points 2 years ago

Same here. Liftoff is great.
