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.

Yes, please! This looks amazing!

[–] Cratermaker@lemmy.click 5 points 2 years ago

Looks nice! I like the existing version so far. Will you add swipe gestures for navigation and upvoting/downvoting comments?

[–] lortikins@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Just logged in on the new update and it's fantastic! Major improvement over the web interface on mobile.

[–] Yahhas@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I have been enjoying this app and it's great to see even more improvements

[–] pliqtro@lemmy.one 5 points 2 years ago

I'd love an option to load top-level comments only by default.

I feel stupid. I can't for the life of me figue out how to reply to replies. (Edit: reply to replies in the inbox, it's not changed in the wild)

Other than that, everything looks good 👍

Edit²: Here is my bug report for the missing inbox interactions, if you are having this issue bump this report instead of opening a new one.

Edit³: issue closed, I would ask for more clear indication of the feature than (i think this is it) "comment action bar interaction improvements". I know the changelog needs to be succinct and must avoid excessive verbosity, but it took a while to figure out that long pressing in the username/vote counter bar reveals the interactions. Also an option to have them revealed at all times would be appreciated.

I get Object Error. Can't see it. Room for improvements!

[–] Mog_fanatic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Feature not a bug 😏

Works really well. My only complaint is when trying to collapse a comment tree if I accidentally tap a user's name instead then swipe to go back all the comment trees I've collapsed are no longer collapsed.

[edit]

Replying to a comment also uncollapses all collapsed comments.

Looks good!

Looks awesome. Can't wait to see it in the next update.

[–] techgearwhips@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm loving the new AMOLED black!

There's a bug I'd like to make you guys aware of:

I could not reply to this post because the "comment icon" was missing. I had to turn my phone in landscape mode just to see it. I can see it on other comments without doing this though. Just not on the OP.

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I discovered two different bugs, the inbox replies interactions are missing, and changing the font size cuts off the bottom option in settings.

I'm wondering if you could try changing your font size and see if that effects things for you?

Here is my bug report for the font size issue, please add to it if changing the font size fixes your issue!

[–] sealneaward@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I have the same problem with inbox replies. Worked yesterday. No way for me to reply now unless I hunt down the reply in the thread itself

[Edit] ok I was blind, there is already an option for that in the settings called "show action bar by default for comments" not sure, if this came with .33 or not but I'm happy now :D


Looks good!

One suggestion:

Can you make an option to hide the controls for comments (up/downvote, permalink and so on...) and make them only pop up when I press on the comment?

When reading the comments of a post, the controls take away a lot of screen space. I don't want to interact with very comment, so hiding the controls would declutter the comment section imho

Example of what I mean in Sync for reddit:

Controls Hidden

Controls shown

[–] Celsiuss@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

If you long tap the comment, it hides the buttons.

But I agree that it should be hidden by default. And swap the long tap and short tap behavior.
