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.

Seeing the same here for my lemmy.world account. Strong recommend for Connect as an alternative.

Im using Connect for Lemmy on android. It seems to working fine so far.
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
What’s Summit? Never heard of it.
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.
Oh that’s beautiful! I look forward to giving it a go!
The only one I could find on the Play store is Liftoff. I guess the others have to be downloaded from elsewhere.
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.
Oh no :(. If you’re up for it, I am open to feedback. You can send feedback either here or over at https://lemmy.world/c/summit. But if you don’t want to I understand.
Well it was as laggy as the other apps, because of the update and the increase of signups. Also I found it difficult to navigate, to find the right buttons to push to access a certain thing. I know it’s early days and I’m sure your app will improve in time, and I’ll try it again later.
I used it, had problems, dropped it. Using Connect now. Wefwef is good if you like PWAs.
I had to clear all memory (not just the cache) then relogin. That sorted it. But I’ve since moved to Connect
Works for me.
I’m having more problems w jerboa than WefWef ATM.
I just stayed off the fediverse while new users signed up and jerboa is back and working for me on android.
This app crashes on boot for me. Could not even get it to open.
Same for me
I still can’t switch from local to all. Switched to Thunder which has been great!
Edit: Jerboa back to working great and my top app again.
I had this, too, but got a new version done hours ago that solved this problem.
It’s very clunky for me
I have the same issue. Deleting app data and cache stopped the crash at the start, but I cannot log into my account. It seems the reason for the crash was that the lemmy instance I’m on (and that I was still logged into) uses version 17.x, when Jerboa requires 18.x.
They fixed it this morning, but it’s still being buggy for me. I think it’s more on Lemmy’s/.world’s side, at this point. That being said, I’m starting to like wefwef a lot.
With latest updates with app and server-side it’s a lot more stable now. It will be weeks to months until the infrastructure can absorb new users.
I had to reset the whole app
I am using webweb.app which is a PWA Apollo clone. Its a bit weird cause the UI is iOS based, but it’s by far the smoothest and full featured all I tried so far!
Scrolling is like butter, I can customize text size, and from comment reply notifications it actually directly opens the thread to the comment, and also highlights the comment which i love! Is liftoff and thunder similarly full featured?
I think you meant wefwef.app?
Oops, pesky autocorrect. This also has infinite scrolling which I didn’t even realize at first and what made the Lemmy feel so clunky on mobile before - that is definitely the biggest thing that makes this my favorite now.
