Jerboa on Android, Mlem on iOS (as they are both the only options for now)

[–] MyNameIsIgglePiggle@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm now typing this to you from jerboa!

[–] dukethorion@lemmy.one 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Just trying Jerboa out now. UI buttons are too small and sometimes difficult to see.

Can't hide post replies.

Other than that, seems okay so far.

Edit: Basically I want it to be Infinity for Lemmy.

You can collapse threads with a long press on the comment header (the line with the username, score and timestamp).

The app could definitely use some documentation.

This is helpful, thanks!

[–] nachtigall@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

You can drop your feedback on !jerboa@lemmy.ml or their Github issues if not already there :)

[–] Nyanix@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

100% my thoughts about it, otherwise a beautiful app

[–] mate_classic@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I tried Jerboa and it always crashes a few second after opening it. Web app for me, I guess.

[–] TWeaK@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

For me, I find writing comments on Jebora is buggy. If you mistype, then hit backspace to delete, it removes the space between the last two words.

Maybe that's a feature for Germans to combine words, I dunno, but it means you have to do a lot of additional manual editing.

It's on their bug tracker. Apparently an issue with all apps using the Jetpack-Compose toolkit (the recommended way of building new Android apps): https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/194

[–] Mert@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Just had the same issue while typing up a post of my own, glad I'm not the only one haha

[–] asexualchangeling@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah I've noticed this as well, if it is a feature for some people it would be nice if there was an easy visible setting to turn it off

Sense I know it happens though it's not the biggest deal, just mildly annoying sometimes

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 6 points 1 year ago

It's not a feature but a bug, it’s on their bug tracker. Apparently an issue with all apps using the Jetpack-Compose toolkit (the recommended way of building new Android apps): https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/194

[–] TWeaK@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Hah I was mostly joking with the "feature for Germans" thing.

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm… Mlem isn’t available on the CA App Store yet, it appears. Web app it is for now.

[–] misnina@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

currently mlem just straight up doesn't work for me. infinite loading, does login though.

[–] anda@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have you subscribed to something? Default filter is subscriptions, you can change in on top. Confused me at first.

[–] misnina@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

oh!!!! thank you, I see now. oh what an interesting interface, having full text lol. time to look around.

[–] m3enzo@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Haha I had the same brain fart for a minute too. Then i realized it was trying to infinitely load my non existent subscriptions.
