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.

Thank you devs, great release.

Might I add some remarks?

  • The login feature is not really intuitive. When not logged in and pressing on any of the icons below, instead of displaying a "login first" notification, bring the user to the login screen?
  • Possibility to collapse and expand comment threads (as @[email protected] pointed out this already works by touching the comment)
  • When I click on a link and it for example opens an image, allow me to press the Android back button to go back to the discussion. Right now the only option is to press the back arrow hovering over the image.

If there's a better place to post these requests let me know and I'll post it there

This!

I started using Jerboa today and the login confused me. Jerboa demands login but I couldn:'t find out how to login first

I remember Slide for Reddit having similar issues with their UX but their error message is more informative IIRC

Comment threads are collapsible afaik, just touch and hold onea comment and release again. Admittedly there are no visual hints that this is possible, there a tutorial or something like that might help.
