With many instances holding off until bugs are ironed out with the Lemmy update, Jerboa is not playing nice. YSK, I found Connect for Lemmy as an alternative. (actually it won't let me post 🤨) (lemmy.one)

I know many instances are not upgrading until the majority of bugs and issues are resolved. In the meantime if Jerboa got upgraded (it looks nice, BTW) then it won't play nice with the older versions of Lemmy. On Saturday I discovered Connect for Lemmy inside the Google Play Store.

I figured for us who need something to read on our phones while we poop, this would be good until our instance gets updated.

Whoops. Just discovered I'm having issues posting or commenting with Connect while in my instance. I'm guessing you do have to log into an instance that's upgraded or view everything in a browser. Bummer.

I've never understood github, compiling, and running an app/program from there. I'm at best a code monkey. Show me and the code needed at the command line and most of the time I can make it work. Can you suggest where to get started?

Under the releases section is an apk file. https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases

Just go to the releases tab, it's at the bottom on mobile

I'm still on 0.0.34. So far I have no issues apart from the ones inherent to that version. You could consider going back to 0.0.34 for now.

Connect dev here. The issue with posting should be fixed on the latest release :)
