Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

It wants me to uninstall and reinstall since the signature of different, which makes sense as it from a different source, but it doesn't mention anything in the changelog.

Do you know why the signatures would be different? At my company we release our app on Google play, galaxy and Amazon store and I'm pretty sure we use the same signing key for each

because fdroid build all of their apps themselves, so every app on the fdroid repo uses the fdroid signing key

Interesting, I was not aware of that. sounds like a security risk, as you don't know who actually published it, but I guess since its open source that doesn't really matter as much

I'd recommend giving this article a read, just to inform you about f-droid client https://privsec.dev/posts/android/f-droid-security-issues/

An alternative client being Neo Store
