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.

Still should be at the bottom of the form IMO.
Came to say this as well. Still much better than before
This. It's a pain in the ass to use with a big screen smartphone.
I think the Lemmy devs are great backend guys but quite poor at front-end design. That's OK, but they should ask for some advice here. :)
Same with default Lemmy theme, its designed to be functional, not beautiful.
Agreed. It's a UX nightmare to look to the top right to "submit". I understand the desire to make use of an otherwise empty and useless space in the upper right, but it is unintuitive.
A normal button in the bottom right of the form/screen makes most sense.
Loads better!
That's much better
A new version of Lemmy was released, and the Jerboa app that updates to that new version isn't released yet on Google Play.
Try the new 0.0.35 alpha here: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/releases
Or on IzzyDroid: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.jerboa
It looks like FDroid main repo doesn't have it yet, and it'll probably be a week until the Google Play version is updated (it's still on 0.0.33 lol).
Majority of people will use google play because it is the most convienent. Its not officialy released to most users if its not on google play
A new version of Lemmy was released
It's not yet released!
Doesn't it just need the google play version updated?
0.0.34 is still in the Google Play verification stage, 0.0.35-alpha is available on GitHub now to support the lemmy version that's coming out tomorrow.
Google Play is slow, consider using FDroid for now until things settle down.
Yeah, I keep tapping the "create post" text wondering why nothing is happening before realizing my mistake.
I kept closing my app thinking I had pressed create post my mistake
Same always wondering where to click, I think something on the bottom right would be better.
Top right is also fine but make it look like the Send icon when you're posting a comment
EDIT: It's been changed apparently, yay!
Update your app. 0.34 has an arrow to post. 0.35 has more fixes, but its only on Github as of the time of this comment.
0.34 still has the + symbol for me, and I have it from fdroid. Will need to wait a bit i guess
