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.

Looks nice! I like the existing version so far. Will you add swipe gestures for navigation and upvoting/downvoting comments?

You could block the meme subs I guess.

I get Object Error. Can't see it. Room for improvements!

Feature not a bug 😏

Looks awesome. Can't wait to see it in the next update.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Looks good!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, please! This looks amazing!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I have been enjoying this app and it's great to see even more improvements

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I feel stupid. I can't for the life of me figue out how to reply to replies. (Edit: reply to replies in the inbox, it's not changed in the wild)

Other than that, everything looks good 👍

Edit²: Here is my bug report for the missing inbox interactions, if you are having this issue bump this report instead of opening a new one.

Edit³: issue closed, I would ask for more clear indication of the feature than (i think this is it) "comment action bar interaction improvements". I know the changelog needs to be succinct and must avoid excessive verbosity, but it took a while to figure out that long pressing in the username/vote counter bar reveals the interactions. Also an option to have them revealed at all times would be appreciated.

This is amazing!

Works really well. My only complaint is when trying to collapse a comment tree if I accidentally tap a user's name instead then swipe to go back all the comment trees I've collapsed are no longer collapsed.

[edit]

Replyinf to a comment also uncollapses all collapsed comments.

I installed this yesterday for the first time, and i like it! Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah that looks great!

Looks good!

One suggestion:

Can you make an option to hide the controls for comments (up/downvote, permalink and so on...) and make them only pop up when I press on the comment?

When reading the comments of a post, the controls take away a lot of screen space. I don't want to interact with very comment, so hiding the controls would declutter the comment section imho

Example of what I mean in Sync for reddit:

Controls Hidden

Controls shown

If you long tap the comment, it hides the buttons.

But I agree that it should be hidden by default. And swap the long tap and short tap behavior.
