I have a fork of Jerboa to help with any login issues for those with accounts still on 0.17.x, until either the servers upgrade or until a newer version allows connecting to both 0.18 and pre 0.18 servers.

  • I wonder - why not just use the older APK? It still works just fine.

    • Because if you're not logged in, it will try to load lemmy.ml and crash.

      I still got it to work by spam tapping in the right places to open the log-in page.

      • What? Why does it crash? Did they just completely removed websockets so the applications are entirely incompatible between versions of Lemmy?

        • To answer your question about if they removed websocket support (a couple of days late, so you might already have the answer), it looks like that's exactly what happened.
