Is there currently a dedicated mobile app for this instance? (beehaw.org)

I think having an app to use this site easily on mobile will obviously be incredibly useful and can help this place grow even further.

It may still be too early but if no such app exists so far are there any plans for one?

Edit: Guys, looks like Jerboa started acting funny, I keep logging in but the app insists that I'm not logged in. I'm on the mobile site for now until I figure it out.

I tried using the Jerboa app but I swear it errored out on me constantly to the point I just went back to the mobile site. I don't know if the high traffic lately or something was the culprit so I may give it another shot

The high traffic isn't helping at all and it was smoother last night than today. I've been getting a lot of timeouts.

It's not without its faults though and I've had other weird errors.

If Jerboa does not work for you (which it should not as it works for many), you can always use the webapp installed through your favourite browser. The webapp is actually pretty good.

Or do you mean the webapp with "the mobile site"?

[–] cloudynight88@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

No, I meant an app like Jerboa. I've been using it for a few minutes now, so far so good.

Just started trying out the webapp, and yep it's very nice. Thanks for the suggestion!

That is great to hear. Have fun.
