About this app
Jerboa is a app for Lemmy, a federated reddit alternative. Jerboa is made by Lemmy's developers, and is free, open-source software, meaning no advertising, monetizing, or venture capital, ever.
Lemmy is similar to sites like Reddit, Lobste.rs, or Hacker News: you subscribe to forums you're interested in, post links and discussions, then vote, and comment on them. Behind the scenes, it is very different; anyone can easily run a server, and all these servers are federated (think email), and connected to the same universe, called the Fediverse.

Good app for Lemmy instances. Only a few QoL quirks that I'd like to see implemented (please add a 'hide read' button so I can hide posts as I scroll). But overall it's good at what it does, nice UI, great theme. I wish clicking on the "home" button didn't take you to the top of the feed again and lose your position. It desperately needs a search function though. Also, would be nice if if supported GIFs in comments (they appear as static images)

Interested to try the app, but I cannot get anything to load. I am met with this error: "Value Error of type Java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject". I have a Galaxy S10+ with the most recent OS.------------Okay, it seems like the server was just overloaded? I like the interface a lot. Similar to Reddit Sync. As far as I can tell, there is no way to create an account through the app, only login. Still, excited to give it a try.

Pretty good! Some tap areas are a bit unintuitive. I keep tapping the usernames when I mean to uncollapse a comment, and when I back out of their profile page, ALL collapsed comments are uncollapsed, messing up where I was. Text entry also does wierd things when backspacing. Spaces between previous words disappearing... When trying to edit the cursor jumps around, sometimes replacing entire words with the next thing you write, and not in the spot you're trying to edit.
