Jerboa is a really good app considering is still Alpha
I agree. There's definitely work to be done but considering the massive influx I think it's doing pretty decently okay
For those uninformed:
Reddit Sync's dev is already working on Sync for Lemmy, and Artemis for Lemmy/kbin looks like a spiritual successor to Apollo; will even be on both ios and android
@git Jerboa isn't terribly bad but I understand why people think it isn't good.
I'm hoping the Infinity dev makes one for kbin though, would be a great fit
+1 for Infinity for Lemmy.
Infinity and Boost are my favorite Reddit apps.
Infinity dev is not making one. If the API shim works well it'll get forked by someone (it's open source) and it will work with Lemmy.
I thought about doing something similar as a labor of love but realized I've currently got dozens of projects in the works and would never really have the time. Between that and how shitty a very vocal minority of people can be to developers, I lost interest very quickly.
memmy is going to be ported to android as well
sync looks amazing, I would use it if it was foss.
I have hope for RedReader. This is my favourite reddit app. And it's foss.
Shout out to jerboa. Very smooth transition from Sync. Suspect with the recent rexodus it'll only get better.
Yea i can ses the similarities, but i keep trying to swipe on things and it doesnt do anything
Sync for lemmy is coming and ill probably jump back to that, especially if its open source. Else i hope the jerboa folks take some more design cues from the other apps to make the whole ux feel a bjt quicker/easier
Wait sync for lemmy is coming? That's awesome.
Ha, I come from Infinity and I also keep trying to swipe on stuff out of force of habit. Would love some more options regarding or else other apps to get a hit more variety in the future, but I get this is all still in its infancy.
Also shout out to liftoff. I find the ui very appealing
A robed man stands in the desert on a planet. The text below him says Lemmy API. Several AT-AT like robots are shown with red lasers firing at the robed man. Each robot has the text of an In development Lemmy app below it
Jerboa is pretty damn good on Android. No complaints here, coming from relay and RIF
I'm loving Jeroba, I would just like options to sort the comments.
I've read this is coming in next release I think
I got it looking like BaconReader! You can go into settings and adjust display options.
It's alright but one big issue I've been having with it is the app not keeping my place when going back from viewing a post. Like I'll be viewing some community by top of all time and when I'm 15 posts deep I'll click one, go back and it resets me to the top of the list. Becomes very tedious scrolling all the way back down after every single post
Agreed, Jerboa is working just fine for me.
Jerboa is pretty good imo
Ive ran the unreleased version there are a ton of improvements coming to it
Hope rif for reddit devs jump ship and do a rif for lemmy. Im using jerboa but it still lacking some useful features like blocking keywords.
I like Jerboa personally. I use the web app for kbin and quickly get annoyed and go back to lemmy on jerboa. But then I'm back to kbin because kbin's /all/hot sort works properly and lemmy's, while improving, is more like /all/rising.
Hmm, I only know about Jerboa.
There is close to 10 Android apps currently in development you can see them at https://lemmy.ml/post/1162300
Sync for Lemmy, Artemis
Should try some of them 3rd party lemmy apps
Whys everyone obsessed with apps? Mobile browser works.
The website definitely works, but it has weird issues with posts jumping around.
Also you can’t use gestures on the website, but you can on apps. Like swiping to comment/like, tapping to hide, etc). It just feels way smoother
Agreed. Also funny because this whole thing started because of well-designed native apps in the first place…
Memmy App for iOS works quite well. Multiple updates per day over testflight.
Yeah Memmy is way better than the web app, and you can already do most of what you’d want to do. Definitely recommend checking it out
Been playing around with Limbo as well. Limbo is a bit ahead of Memmy in terms of allowing management of multiple accounts, but Memmy seems more lightweight on my iOS device.
Even though I am an android user, I guess it would be nice for iOS user to also have some development going.
There are at least 5 apps for iOS in development, Mlem, Memmy, Limbo, Beyond and Thunder
I use jerboa. Especially like that it uses material you
Thunder client is very nice and they also released new version which support make comments.
Maybe this is finally the chance to embrace the webapp.
It's a pretty good webapp
Pixelfed dev also announced he wil be building Kbin mobile app. Not sure if that's for Android or iOS.
There's always a way!
Reading this on Melm on iOS.
You can use the web app In chrome there is an option to add it to the home screen and it will behave like a normal app. Same thing is possible in IOS.
iOS' support for PWAs is a lot worse than Android (for example, iOS didn't allow push notifications for sites), but I've heard they're getting better.
I can't login with Jerboa, what's up with that?
Some servers are updating to Lemmy 0.18, after updating Jerboa to version 0.0.35 it should work again. Give it a try.
I know Sync is coming and there are rumors about Boost. Are there more?
Slide for reddit is officially making a lemmy app.
Hmm, thought i read that Boost dev said "no".
I think it's a "no for now", but Ruben has reserved a community over here just in case.
There's a post about Slide being developed too, which was always my favorite Reddit app.
TBH, the mobile experience isn't half bad
I am actually working on one myself with. Net Maui blazor to be able to provide the same ui in browser and native on all mobiles and desktops (Mac, ios, Android, Windows,... With out Linux)
thunder for ios is really nice sofar
