Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

The entire app doesnt feel "smooth" everything is alright but scrolling is a nightmare. I'm wondering if everyone is experiencing this or just me? Using a Samsung a04.

EDIT: The website is perfectly fine no lags or stutters. I don't think it's an issue with too many people since opening posts and loading images are instant its the scrolling that seems too lag

EDIT 2: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/445 Found this in git

My guess is that that the UI is waiting for something from the server that hosts the user and therefore the content. That is more or less what I meant with my analogy. Keep in mind that I don't know this for certain, I am just going off of things that I have heard about how the fediverse works. If a developer for the app or lemmy can weigh in for a more complete answer, that would be great. I could be completely wrong for all I know and am open to knowing more.

If single instances become large enough, finding a way to split those up may be necessary if you can't just improve it by getting better hardware or optimizing lemmy to run better. I guess we see what becomes necessary.
