I'm having an excellent time with Jerboa.

I'm using Jerboa too. However, since I am subscribed to some sublemmes from my mastodon account, I might occasionally use Tusky aswel to write comments.

The font size in Jerboa is way too big right now, it's not a good experience. There's an issue on their GitHub and apparently this is a bug in their markdown parser. I'll give it another shot once they fix that, but for now, I just use my instance from a mobile browser and it's not half bad. "Reddit bad" memes aside, Lemmy's mobile UI is actually pretty good... unlike Reddit's.

You probably know, but just in case not - you can adjust the text size in Jerboa in the settings :-)

I've decreased the font size on step, which makes comments just a bit too large, and other text a bit too small 😄 I am not complaining though, it's totally fine

Hi, thought I'd come back to this to let you know that version 0.0.33 alpha has been released and the text size is working a lot better now :-)

EmasXP@beehaw.org · 2 pts · 3y

Absolutely splendid!

😁

There's been an update (0.33 - on github) that has fixed the font size issue for me.

I made a firefox fullscreen shortcut for my instance of lemmy. I prefer it to jerboa personnally

zexu@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 3y

Agree jerboa is nice & clean & stable enough considering it's still in alpha.

This is the way for now. I haven't tried Jerboa but why bother when the Lemmy web UI is already minimalistic

dragnucs@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 3y (2 replies)

Jerboa has nice features and display than the web version.

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

How long until Lemmy wants $20 million a month from Jerboa? ;-)

deadly4u@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 3y

I'll give it a whirl.

I think there are only two and I'm using Jerboa because it's available on F-Droid.

I hope that the development will ramp up on the application, it needs a UI work over. I can't even choose my default settings for sorting.

What is the name of the other app?

_s0me_guy_@lemmy.ml · 7 pts · 3y

It's called Lemmur. But it's not actively developed

pumpsnabben@beehaw.org · 1 pts · 3y

I was incorrect, I missed that it was only for Android. Mlem is the second app but for iOS.

bacteriostat@lemmy.one · 9 pts · 3y (2 replies)

Jerboa. I am really hopeful for its development. Each release is going to get a lot of fixes and improvements. It is a satisfying feeling to see software grow and improve.

Copio@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 3y (1 reply)

That's good to hear, I've also just realised that the app is also very recently updated. Whereas the other app was last updated last year.

blujan@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 3y

Lemmur is not maintained, wish it was as it's pretty but it's incompatible with latest lemmy versions.

Ultra980@lemmy.ml · 8 pts · 3y

Jerboa

OrakMoya@lemmy.ml · 8 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Is there anything else other than Jeroba?

Right now I have Jeroba and Lemmy.ml "installed" as an app through firefox.

Carlspanks@latte.isnot.coffee · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Tell me about it. there's lemmur but it's broken

zexu@lemmy.ml · 6 pts · 3y

Lemmur is discontinued & Jerboa is stable enough after the last update.

mrmanager@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 3y

Don't think there are any other clients? But jerboa is great, so...

magmaus3@szmer.info · 1 pts · 3y

Lemmur, since it works with my instance unlike Jerboa (planning to switch after admins update the software tho)
