I'm using Jerboa, but it keeps crashing and on every statup complains that my instance is not compatible with the updated version. This drives me back to reddit and when it shuts off apps, I'll probably go back to real life.
In the latest version of Jerboa I can't change from All / Active anymore. ๐ Also I can't figure out for the life of me how to make a top level comment, they're doesn't seem to be a button for it.
Thunder didn't have sorting by top last time I checked. Liftoff can't add other instances than the 3 it comes with.
I definitely added more instances on liftoff
Edit: profile > settings > accounts > bottom right corner has a button that allows ,out to add instances
It's definitely not intuitive, I admit
Oh I found that but it doesn't seem to work for feddit.nl, the final "add" button never lights up. I've tried writing it as "feddit.nl" or "https://feddit.nl", same thing.
There's going to be a Liftoff update released later today that fixes this. There was an issue for v0.18.1 that impacted ability to add instances that I just fixed. Your instance just happened to update a bit early!
Ah right, I did notice they updated to 0.18.1 sometime yesterday. The web UI for 0.18 is pretty cool btw. ๐
No worries, it's to be expected for stuff to break right now, with all the client apps and instances developing like crazy. ๐บ
The pace is certainly quick at the moment lol
So you don't see a speech bubble in the row under the picture?
No, just number of comments, upvote/downvote buttons and scores, and the button to save the post. I'm on 0.0.36 right now.
It's just Jerboa. I use Connect for Lemmy and that problem doesn't exist. I think the dev for Jerboa doesn't want to spend time making it backwards compatible, but other clients are.
Please report back on this "real life" thing
Try Connect for Lemmy. Jerboa is just very badly bugged and a poor UX right now. Connect seems to be much less buggy as well as more usable generally.
