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.

Hi, I am wondering if there is any way to browse a specific instance and view the communities and info about that instance?

There's a request on.github to add this functionality. Until then, use a search site. I'll link one when I wake up

https://www.search-lemmy.com

You can do advanced filters on posts or communities. Feel free to provide feedback as well. I'm still working on the order of the results, etc...

Oh this one, it needs to be able to search all instances. I almost never want to search a single instance. I don't even know or care which instance I happen to be commenting on right now. Its all seamless with federation

Yes but what if you search and find a post that doesn't exist on your home instance? You'd be taken to a 404 page and can't do anything.

But I've got an issue on GitHub for this. And just raised a PR on Lemmy to support the changes I need for this. But a reminder, once you can search all instances you may encounter 404s opening the posts that you find.

I haven't had that problem.

Sometimes I need to reload the page, because it hasn't been indexed or something?

I found most of my communities through newcommunities though

Not from your own instance afaik but you could just go to the instances website and browse without an account.
