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.

Ello there, using the android app, it's a god send and reminds me a lot of boost (minus the themes), but I wanted to point out, when someone links to a community, the app doesn't seem to recognize the link and instead wants me to go to my browser to look at the link instead of inside the app, is this something intentional or is it something going to be added in the future?

(Example of what I mean)

Also, I can't edit this setting and I don't get notifications from the app currently.

And finally, the button in the top right doesn't do anything.

Edit: I also got this error when I tried to check a community linked in a sidebar

Hrm.. open up an issue about the sidebar one.

The internal app linking is a really difficult one, since the lemmy software can be run at any domain, and android requires you to specify your domains explicitly at compile time. All federated apps have this issue with web links.

I had it working at some point with a few of the domains, but I'll probably just disable it, and allow you to paste web links in the search bar.

If I had to vaguely guess what's causing the issue, is a dead or invalid community being linked onto a sidebar, I'd have to find where specifically I found it originally tho

I left a github thing on it

(Also while trying to edit this comment I got two errors.)

I've been getting these same errors myself

I've been getting these error too, but they've become less frequent since the servers calmed down.

Most likely related to that then
