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.

Jerboa is not trustable with these bugs, seems like any PR gets merged (sh.itjust.works)

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

You should look at the code in Lemmy lol. I get that people think open source means more eyes, but it doesn't mean higher quality.

Depends. Not under these conditions, with just a few devs stressing to both add features and fix bugs, as users comes crashing in.

It's obvious that the code is not going to be high quality right now. But hopefully once the storm is over.

There is a reason companies don't try and stress devs with tight deadlines unless they want poor quality. It takes time to do things right, and now the devs are probably just patching stuff together to get it out the door.
