I've been using Jerboa for Lemmy on Android. It's pretty good so far. Still getting the hang of Lemmy in general.

There are some bugs and an advance user may not like it but for a simple lurker as myself Jeroba has been working wonders. 100% recomend

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Are you really a lurker if you're already commenting? (Speaking as a recovering lurker)

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Jerboa has been working well for me so far as well but I am pretty new too. It has been somewhat easy to navigate but I am trying to learn the whole fediverse thing at the same time.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Totally fair. I'm brand new today so it's been nice to play around with to get used to Lemmy. Still no idea to view things I subscribed to but I'm sure I'll learn!

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I'm on Android and it seems to me like there is no other app but Jerboa for Lemmy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Same but its incredibility buggy and unintuitive for me

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It definitely has bugs. I had to load this thread 8 times to get the correct comments to load. Some of this could be user error, buts it's a free app that works pretty dang well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure its the only actively maintained app on f-droid

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's barely working for me at all, and I've been trying it for at least a week now. Sometimes I've written out long comments only for them to just vanish forever with a little error message.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Same here.

I've gotten in the habit of copying my comments before submitting them, just in case. Including this one.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me2. But I do not see an option to add my kbin account nor my mastodon. I think it would be cool if this feels more integrative as in one app with different sections/views for the fediverse

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I wish there was a way to have one account linked to multiple instances. Admittedly I don't understand this fediverse thing so i may be wrong about this but requiring a new account for every instance will get increasingly tiresome as the site grows and more instances are created.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

FWIW, any account can subscribe to any (federated) community. Right now it's really difficult to do through Jerboa itself, so I usually do it through the web app.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is kbin.social just another community? And kbin just another app which presents said communities a bit different?

I have a mastodon, Lemmy and kbin account and would love to have one place to view all my subscribed content...

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yes. On kbin they are called magazines, but they show up as communities for me in the jerboa app even though my account is with lemmyworld.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you have an account on an instance, you can see anything on other instances it federates with

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Same... I'm pretty confused about some stuff but it's close enough to reddit to where I'm kinda figuring it out

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Using it too reminds me of infinity for Reddit

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I used to use Relay for reddit, and jerboa feels really familiar. It's development really picked up last release too. Still having an issue getting back to a comment context from a reply in my inbox, but I think that's a bug from last release and there's a pull request already.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I assume there isn't really any app for Lemmy on iOS? I didn't find anything. I didn't expect to, but still disappointing.
