If you downvote any post in jerboa 0.0.35 you actually upvote it. Seems like anything gets merged? If this goes on like this, there could be a lot of trouble

Edit: Thanks to quick reaction seems like a simple an quick fix. I hope that things will be fine in the future

    Just fyi, there are a ton of mobile apps in development right now that are very promising.

    • Connect for Lemmy

    • Thunder

    • Jerboa

    • Sync for Lemmy (not yet realeased dev)

    Connect is my go to at the moment. Thunder is really pretty, but not yet there with features. Jerboa is actually lagging behind a bit, but IMO, that’s 100% fine. Focus on bots and lemmy itself, not the Android app.

      Thanks, yeah, I know about the other apps but I think the existing reddit apps that have already had tons of user testing are an underutilized resource. Sync is the exception but it is proprietary. I currently have no way to log into reddit from mobile except through an app, since login from the web view is broken.

      I’m not that crazy about Lemmy’s web UI either. I have an impulse (but probably not the energy to act on it) to implement an alternative web UI that is more text oriented, so the web view would look like Hacker News.

      I do want to start looking at the backend code, to get some exposure for Rust if nothing else.
