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.

The Brazilian community of reddit opened lemmy.eco.br to host a lemmy server, but every link of it opens the explorer and can't add it as a default url to open with jerboa.

Im on Android 13, with f-droid's 0.0.34 jerboa.

Thanks.

Unfortunately the list of servers that pop up are "hard-coded" so to speak, so it's a limited list of the top dozen or so most active servers.

Hard coded by Jerboa devs? In that case the Brazilian server could ask the devs to be added?

Maybe jerboa devs should make a formal process so server admins could ask to be added.

If you wanted to build your own version of the app, just add lemmy.eco.br to Utils.kt (top picture) and AndroidManifest.xml (bottom picture), following the same format, then build and run it using Android Studio, gradle tool or another build script.

Is this even programmatically possible?

I think we have to actually contact the developer and request they add instances to the "open with links" on Android.

That being said, with the last update, there are indeed more. sh.itjust.works is there now, was not on older version of Jeroba.

I think the intent is to keep this list updated with the most popular X servers. I don't know what the criteria is, but they're working on including it as part of the release build process.

I am pretty sure it is possible.
