I started using jerboa cause of a random suggestion, how does everyone feel about it? I noticed it doesnt collect user data and I think it said it encrypts stuff, which I like for privacy

jerboa crashes on me everytime. now i use connect for lemmy. I also like the interface more for it

I've only started using it, but I'm liking it alright. That being said, I'm going to use Sync as soon as it's available.

I am still getting used to it coming from RIF but it's growing on me.

Same doesn't seem bad, just not what I'm used to.

After being here for 5 minutes. After not knowing how to login 6 minutes ago.

I've already forgot reddit exists.

What's Reddit?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Reddit? Never heard that before

Jerboa used to work but it crashes for me now. I even tried uninstalling and making sure a version compatible with my server was installed (cleared app data and cache too), but nope, It's borked for me.

I use Connect for Lemmy now. Once Boost is out I'll most likely switch

I had to switch to connect for Lemmy, as jerboa was bugging out and not showing me anything on my feed from outside my local instance.

Waiting for sync for Lemmy but it's roughly 6 weeks away from release according to developer.

Same, I do wish connect had quick buttons to move between connects. You can collapse a comment section by holding down the parent comment, but I haven't found a way to navigate quickly.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Connect dev here. It's coming! I like that feature a lot too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I would've liked to try it, but it crashes on app launch :/ using Connect For Lemmy instead

[–] grozzle 2 points 1 year ago

I have been getting "timeout" errors, which are a sign that none of my votes or comments for the couple minutes before the first error notice have actually landed. Happened a few times today and past couple days, although I can't tell if this is from an app bug or an overloaded instance server.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I couldn't login two weeks and had to do it on thed web page. I can't download images in comment sections :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm using it. I like it better than connect which is the only other one on the play store right now. There are more but you have to install them off github. I'll just wait till they make it to play store to try those out.

I'm using liftoff and I like it more, because it remembers that I only want posts from the communities that I'm subscribed to.

Jerboa was one of the first legit apps out there for Android. But then it killed itself and became a horribly buggy, crashing mess. It doesn't seem to crash as much anymore, but scrolling is very laggy and glitchy still for me. Wouldn't recommend it at the moment, sadly, but I appreciate it as a pioneer.
