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.

With a lot of talk around new apps in development & coming on stream, something I've been happy to see, & commented on, as choice is always a good thing... I thought I'd just voice my appreciation for the Jerboa team, love this App, such nice Ui & UX, I find it very easy to use, all the view options, post layouts, especially the compact view are really easy on the eyes, & great to scroll through quickly. I know there are some errors from time to time, & the odd glitch here & there, but thats something to be expected, given that Jerboa is still in its Alpha form.. Thanks for all you do, each iteration makes the experience, better & better..๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

I wish there was backwards compatibility though, because I can't use most instances (that are Lemmy 0.17.4) with the new Jerboa v0.0.35-alpha ๐Ÿ˜”

Works with my instance on 0.18-rc4/5.

I've even posted this from Jerboa and Updated it...

There is also a test release for a Jerboa update which works well.

Sorry, what I meant is that Jerboa version v0.0.35-alpha only supports instances that are 0.18+

Yeah I'm currently waiting for lemm.ee to update to 0.18 so I can use jerboa again to access it instead of having to use a web browser.
