Great work! Just joined Lemmy today, and downloaded Jerboa from F-Droid (currently replying to you using your app, no less). Checking my profile seems to be broken, but otherwise seems to be working great.
EDIT: Actually, seems to be working now. Maybe the profile breaks if it has no content?
Just as an FYI I started used Jerboa yesterday and it is working well now but it was very hard to find where to login at first. Most of the UI is disabled without logging in but I couldn’t find out where to do that for like 10 minutes of searching the UI. I can see that being a pain point for new users.
My personal experience, I’m so used to Boost that even using the website on mobile is so similar that I don’t even find an app necessary. It’s so similar in every way; though I don’t browse on PC so I can’t say how it’s different…
Thanks for the reply and information! I stumbled on that page after I made my comment - trying out Jerboa - looks good and I will take a look at Mlem. Took me a few minutes to figure out how to login using Jerboa, but once I did that it’s working well aside from a few crashes, but I imagine the system is under a lot of load with all the new accounts coming over from Reddit.
The official list is an https://join-lemmy.org/apps , but the main iOS one (remmel) is currently abandoned, so we’re updating that page soon.
There’s a new iOS app being developed by @davidbures@mstdn.social called Mlem.
I made an android one, called Jerboa.
You made Jerboa? Nice! It’s what I use to browse Lemmy/Beehaw/etc
I did! Glad you like it!

One neat thing is that because Lemmy uses the ActivityPub protocol, it interfaces with other Fediverse things like Mastodon.
Speaking of which - hello from Mastodon!
Thanks, glad you like it!
If it does crash or something’s amiss, make an issue on the issue tracker if you would: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues

That is a pretty decent client. I come from Relay for Reddit, and at first glance like it a lot. Feels home.
