For the past day or so every time I try to open Jerboa it just crashes immediately without an error message why. Is there any scheduled update/fix for Jerboa? I’d like to be able to browse on mobile again and really enjoyed the app while it was working.

It’s not working for me. So I switched to Liftoff.

Same. Won’t let me log in. Liftoff is fantastic though!

Try Thunder: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder

You can install and autoupdate using: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium

I already have Thunder, Connect, Summit, Liftoff and Jerboa. I just thought I would play with all of them for a few weeks until I find the one I like best.

Same here. Liftoff is great.

Just installed liftoff to try it out and unfortunately have to say that I like the layout even BETTER than Jerboa!

I feel a weird sense of loyalty to Jerboa because it was my first app for Lemmy but I might actually like Liftoff better.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I changed some settings to make it look better to me. I’m happiest with liftoff right now.

I was using Jerboa and I switched to connect and I can confirm. It works much weller.

Connect dev here. Weller is what I strive for! Glad you’re enjoying it.

Same here. Jeroba would randomly crash. Connect hasn’t yet.

I find wefwef works the wellest (so far, anyway)

I’m currently using wefwef to reply to you, I use them both interchangeably, but Connect has more formatting options in the markdown editor, whereas Wefwef expects you to just remember how to format anything in markdown. Both experience errors constantly.

I had to clear all memory (not just the cache) then relogin. That sorted it. But I’ve since moved to Connect

I just stayed off the fediverse while new users signed up and jerboa is back and working for me on android.

Latest Jerboa requires a specific server version and not every server has updated yet.

There are a lot of other app options! Like Thunder, Connect or Summit

The only one I could find on the Play store is Liftoff. I guess the others have to be downloaded from elsewhere.

You can download Thunder from IzzyOnDroid (you can add this as a repository to F-Droid).

Summit should be on the playstore. Try searching “app for lemmy” or “lemmy reader”.

I found Summit later on, and it didn’t work well for me.

Dev of Summit here. It is a lemmy reader like the other apps mentioned. You can find it on the play store by searching “app for lemmy” or “lemmy reader”. I’m actually releasing a big update today. Here’s a preview of the feature: https://youtube.com/shorts/8mIVZflUHhU?feature=share.
