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.

Post view in list mode is prone to mistaps (lemmy.world)

I like the list mode for compactness, but it's too easy to accidentally tap the community or the poster name when you're trying to open the thread, especially when the title is short. For at least list view, putting everything interactable except for the thread link and the possible external link behind a long press opened menu would be great.

I suffered this several times. There is already an issue in github: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/488

Agreed. Threads with links to external URLs work well if you want the external link, but tapping an image usually just takes you to another view of the home screen, and text posts have nowhere to click at all.

I'd like to see every post have a tappable square like RiF, and unlike RiF I'd like it to always take you to the comments - then it'll just display the image or text, or you can click again for the link.

I'd also like the option to move the tappable square / thumbnail to the left.

Completely agree. We have an issue logged for this already, should have a fix soon. Probably a checkbox in the user settings to allow small click targets or not in list view.
