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 current alpha is going great!

I'd like to make a few requests, especially regarding link handling.

  • Lemmy links (e.g. a lot of people linking recommended communities) with this app
  • Other links in regular browser, not in-app one

I hope that we'll reach beta (or better, stable) soon!

Agreed. Community@instance.com would currently trigger my email client. If Lemmy could intercept those while in-app, that'd be great.

What should the behavior be for something like https://lemmy.ml/c/jerboa? What about https://lemmy.ml/u/timkenhan? Should those be handled by Jerboa, or only handle lemmy-specific links like:

I'm leaning toward having lemmy handle as many links as it can, and opening a web view if it can't verify that it's a lemmy instance, and then have long-click open externally. Or something like that.
