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.

I want to know if any option is available for cross-posting.

Crossposting is broken on lemmy right now, period. It's not a Jerboa issue.

Sorry i don't know that answer...

However, after i tried Jerboa... i switched to "Connect". I strongly recommend it. Try it, you might like it.

I will give it a try but where can I can download it's APK(Degoogled My device now I don't have Play Store).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

You could use Aurora Store for Play Store apps as well.

I asked them elsewhere in the thread and Connect doesn't have crossposting either, fwiw. I have no idea why they're posting in this thread, their answer has nothing to do with your question.

I have both Connect and Jerboa installed, they're both fine. Connect looks prettier, and the search is definitely better. I end up using Jerboa more out of the two.

When I want to cross-post from mobile I end up switching over to Lemmy's mobile web interface, which can be saved to your home screen as a progressive web app. Not a Jerboa-native solution, but I've tried a lot of the Android apps and I haven't seen any of them support a proper cross-post.

Try an APK mirror site.

Does connect have crossposting? I don't see it listed in the triple-dot menu for a post.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 year ago

Sorry, I don't see the option. But, very easy drop menu to copy Lemmy URL or imbedded article URL. So, kinda easy enough to use for a new post in which ever group you were planning to cross post.

Not a huge fan of cross posting. I'd rather not see the same exact image three times back to back in my subscribed feed from the pics, aww, & dogs communities of someone's fur-baby. If Lemmy ever adds cross-posting there should also be a Detect Duplicates option.
