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.

Does anyone else find Jerboa to be incredibly energy efficient? (lemmy.ml)

I've tried multiple Reddit apps in the past, from the official one to Boost to RiF, yet all of them used way more battery charge for the same amount of browsing I do on Jerboa.

This is great! Well done devs!

I do find the light and simple nature of this app to be highly appealing. Just give me some comments sorting options and fix the bugs with images and then I'd say this app is perfect

And let me change the size of the fonts! For some reason the comments aren't changed by the settings.

Also, changing fonts.

Yah, I've got the same experience. 🙁

Is it possible to collapse comments on Jerboa? If not a tap to collapse is my #1 feature request. Comment sorting would also be awesome. EDIT: Figured it out! Holding down horizontally next to a commenter's name will collapse! (With a slick animation), however I saw someone saying a newer release of Jerboa will have tap anywhere to collapse in comments.

Yep tap to collapse is working for me

I didn't know about this, thanks!
