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.

Have you tried relogging? Some instances had a security thing and changed tokens

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Multiple times to no avail.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Clear storage and then log in once more.

How do I clear storage for an app?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think it may be different in some phones, but on mine I just long-press the icon and get a menu where I choose app info. From there I click 'storage usage' and click 'clear data'.

And they were never heard from again....

Alright so it worked for a minute, now jerboa says i have to login first, even though I did...

Yeah I'll get around to that, the lemmy.world web version works fine on mobile I think I'll stick to that for now.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Long press, app info, storage and data and then clear storage.

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

Yeah found it, thanks.

Clearing storage/cache didn't help though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Have you tried using another instance? I have that problem with lemmy.world but it is ok with less populated instances.

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

I have the same problem and pretty much with the same timing as OP, but I already am on a less populated instance ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I haven't yet, I'll look into it.

Thanks for the advice.

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

I'm currently on tchncs.de and am very happy with the experience. Haven't encountered any of the problems I had in lemmy.world here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I gave up today and downloaded another. Regularly taking me back to the top of the page also did me in.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, haven't been able to permanently fix the issues I'm having.

Which one did you download?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Connect. No issues so far. There aren't many things showing up on googles store.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nice, I'll give it a go!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Jerboa sucked for me since I downloaded it. Constant logouts, unable to login after entering my creds, not showing my account until I closed and reopened the app, not letting me see my comments or saved posts, and constantly getting a "log in first" error when I tried to save a post. I ditched it and downloaded Connect, and thus far it seems to be the store-brand version of Sync, my absolute favorite Reddit app ever. When the dev releases Sync for Lemmy I will switch to that, but until then Connect is usable and pleasant.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Connect works great so far! Cheers.

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

You are welcome and I hope you enjoy it!

IDK why, but this kind of interaction was somewhat rare on Reddit but it's everywhere here. It's like everyone is giving each other the benefit of the doubt or something. I hope it stays like this and doesn't get enshittified.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's been working great for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It was working great until a day or three ago now.
