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.

Hey thanks for making this app! The lower the barrier to joining the better I think. Was curious if there was a notification setting somewhere? Would like to get optional post notifications for communities I'm subscribed to. In addition, notifications for comments from a thread I'm participating in and new comments on posts I create would be fantastic!

Looking at the GitHub page I see an issue for it from Dec '22. Also read your very busy with other lemmy tasks so totally understand it's low priority. I haven't done much app development before but a software dev by trade. I can't commit to anything, but if I were to sink a few days into adding notifications, are you open to collaborating on a PR? Also curious if there's a path forward for notifications you might have in the back of your head.

Not yet. I will eventually add notifications, probably via ntfy, once we finish some of our upcoming lemmy work. It needs both back-end and front-end work unfortunately.

But yes I'm very open to having additional people work on jerboa. I'm spread very thin as it is.

Awesome! I can't promise I'll get anywhere, but if I find myself with some free time I'll try and dig into the codebase.

Really nice App, with the latest version, fixing the status bar visibility, in dark mode...although the bottom action bar, is now twice the height of the previous version.. Will there be a fix to this in the next release?

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

It's just using the default now. You can open an issue on the github for it tho.

Its not a big issue, just an observation, I'm still using version 0.0.29 for now.. Thankyou for replying 👍🏻
