On iOS: tap the share button in browser => add to home screen
On Android: tap the 3 dot menu button in browser => tap “install” or “add to home screen”
Been trying the place and just have jerboa a shot in comparison. The actual app is better by miles. So much faster than the browser.
tap to collapse threads
I haven’t been able to collapse threads on Jerboa, how do you do that? Am I missing something?
At first it wasn’t doing it for me but since last night it has
Tapping anywhere in the text of a comment seems to do it, holding like i would back on Boost for Reddit simply removes the extra toolbar at the bottom, and the title area did nothing
Sometimes it just doesn’t but i find restarting the app fixes that, though i usually just move on to the next topic when that happens
I just wish it used screen real-estate better. I’m using it right now. I wish it could replace RIF.
The WPA’s layout is not crazy good on mobile, but at least I got some real estate.
Now, how can I contribute? I’m a frontend web developer.

Until the websocket issue is fixed, I’m gonna stick with Jebora
Still a better user experience than the official Reddit app.
As an alternative, there’s also Native Alpha and Hermit (my personal favorite) on Android. Play with the settings to make it full screen and frameless (no address bar at the top). It also has pull down to refresh.
On kbin, you can then go to your settings and sticky the navbar as well so that it’s always at the top as you browse. Personal preference and all that.
I just tried installing kbin as described in the post and downloading Hermit and I’m not really seeing a difference between the two options. Am I just missing something?
Wait, where’s the option to sticky the top bar? I am not seeing it in my settings but maybe I’m just blind.
This is on kbin. Username in the upper right, Settings, scroll down through the stuff there and stop when you see the Delete Account button. Look for the small cog and click it. Turn on the option to sticky navbar - you may want to toggle infinite scrolling and maybe the show icons options while there as well.
Oh wow that was kind of hidden, but you just improved this site for me so much. Thank you! Some of these seem better defaults than what is present.
Hermit isn’t open source. This makes the code not publicly auditable, which means that verification of security by a third party is impossible.
I tried Hermit before, assumed these features will be locked in premium and didn’t try it more, thank you!
Any idea why it changed my top bar color to gray while the icons (wifi, etc) are black? It’s not a dealbreaker but it would be nice if there’s a solution I’m missing.
Surprisingly, those particular features aren’t locked behind premium. As for the top bar color, you might be able to change the theme in Lemmy/kbin itself in your profile settings to one that suits what you’re looking for. Unless you mean in Hermit itself. In that case, I’m not sure - I use it frameless.
I tried Hermit and noticed that Voyager doesn’t automatically switch between Dark and Light theme (in the night / morning). Workaround is to kill (force close) the app and open it again.
Do you also face this issue? I can’t remember if with Chrome I was facing it…
It saved my sessions in Hermit, so I don’t think I had that issue. But I definitely had that issue when using Brave with it not saving my settings/session between loads.
Now I’m trying this “Native Alpha” app. And with this one seems to adapt the system theme (dark or light) without needing a restart of the power app.
I think I’ll keep this app to run voyager!
