      I agree. There’s definitely work to be done but considering the massive influx I think it’s doing pretty decently okay

      @OtakuAltair

      @git Jerboa isn’t terribly bad but I understand why people think it isn’t good.

      I’m hoping the Infinity dev makes one for kbin though, would be a great fit

        +1 for Infinity for Lemmy.

        Infinity and Boost are my favorite Reddit apps.

        Infinity dev is not making one. If the API shim works well it’ll get forked by someone (it’s open source) and it will work with Lemmy.

        I thought about doing something similar as a labor of love but realized I’ve currently got dozens of projects in the works and would never really have the time. Between that and how shitty a very vocal minority of people can be to developers, I lost interest very quickly.

      Yea i can ses the similarities, but i keep trying to swipe on things and it doesnt do anything

      Sync for lemmy is coming and ill probably jump back to that, especially if its open source. Else i hope the jerboa folks take some more design cues from the other apps to make the whole ux feel a bjt quicker/easier

        Ha, I come from Infinity and I also keep trying to swipe on stuff out of force of habit. Would love some more options regarding or else other apps to get a hit more variety in the future, but I get this is all still in its infancy.

      Am I stupid or am I missing a way to permanently set the “source” to subscribed instead of local? But apart from that it is quite good already.

          Interesting, it runs without stutters on my Pixel 6, but crashes often. Either way, alpha software isn’t expected to be stable, so hopefully it will get better.

          Same on my Galaxy S22. We need an app that scrolls smoothly at 120fps. Maybe Jerboa will improve over time.

      A robed man stands in the desert on a planet. The text below him says Lemmy API. Several AT-AT like robots are shown with red lasers firing at the robed man. Each robot has the text of an In development Lemmy app below it

      I got it looking like BaconReader! You can go into settings and adjust display options.

      It’s alright but one big issue I’ve been having with it is the app not keeping my place when going back from viewing a post. Like I’ll be viewing some community by top of all time and when I’m 15 posts deep I’ll click one, go back and it resets me to the top of the list. Becomes very tedious scrolling all the way back down after every single post

    I like Jerboa personally. I use the web app for kbin and quickly get annoyed and go back to lemmy on jerboa. But then I’m back to kbin because kbin’s /all/hot sort works properly and lemmy’s, while improving, is more like /all/rising.

          It’s hard to explain but for example see the difference of using Reddit web vs Apollo. Native apps have native system gestures and UI elements built in that generally feel a lot better to use.

      The website definitely works, but it has weird issues with posts jumping around.

      Also you can’t use gestures on the website, but you can on apps. Like swiping to comment/like, tapping to hide, etc). It just feels way smoother

        Agreed. Also funny because this whole thing started because of well-designed native apps in the first place…

          TL;DR: big elements cause annoying scroll-bars to appear.

          My username is very big, so when I open this page on a mobile I get a horizontal scroll-bar for the entire page.

          In CSS there’s a property called overflow which lets you decide how you want elements that contain elements wider or taller than them to behave. So you can solve this problem by simply making that element itself scroll instead of the entire page by using overflow: scroll, or hide the child elements by using overflow: hidden;.

          You can also solve these problems by dealing with the child elements for example: using the word-wrap property to allow word wrapping, using the hyphens property to break words with hyphens, or in this case use the HTML wbr tag to allow line breaking after every underscore, or even cut the longer words and append three dots to them; so my user name would look like this: “Limitless_s…”.

    Even though I am an android user, I guess it would be nice for iOS user to also have some development going.

      There are at least 5 apps for iOS in development, Mlem, Memmy, Limbo, Beyond and Thunder

        Been playing around with Limbo as well. Limbo is a bit ahead of Memmy in terms of allowing management of multiple accounts, but Memmy seems more lightweight on my iOS device.
