Hi everyone. Phenomenal job with the app, it’s really looking like it could replace reddit with no trouble.

I’m getting timeout issues though, every time I upvote something. I’m sure it’s nothing but I wanted to give you the heads-up.

One more suggestion is to make it easier to find communities on here! Then it’ll be perfect.

Thanks again :)

    Timeouts might be from the server struggling since the reddit blackout is bringing in a lot of users at the same time right now. I’d wait a few days and see if the issue disappears or maybe a second account on a lesser known instance might help.

      I’ve noticed (although on the .ml instance) that even whenever GET requests go through fine (albeit a bit slow) POST requests don’t actually return a response. After 60 seconds they will timeout, even if the operation actually does complete successfully. This happens mainly on voting and making comments from what I see.

    I think its best to just use the lemmy web instance interface to subscribe to communities on all kinds of instances, and then they just show up in Jerboa. :)

    Timeouts may be because you are using an overloaded instance like lemmy.ml when you should spread out on other instances. :)

      At least for me, I noticed subs worked but wouldn’t show up in the list UNTIL I restarted the app.

    Yeah this is quite an annoying issue so far. It keeps popping up randomly. Not sure if it’s related, but sometimes after this happens I also get a blank screen. I can live with it tho, growing pains are to be expected

      +1 on the blank screen, it forces me to use the back button on my phone then click the post again. Quite annoying but still better than not having the app.
