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.

Thanks for the app! Just starting with lemmy. Are there any alternatives etc.? I liked the Infinity reddit app particularly.

For now lemmy or the website on browser are the best option, but there's some in development like Thunder

Other Reddit developers (RedReader, Infinity) said they are willing to make their apps work with Lemmy, but will take some time

I've thought about building a cross platform app to work on desktop and mobile (mostly to work on PinePhone and Steam Deck), but then I decided I probably don't have time to really deliver it so I'm working on Jerboa.

Once that gets mostly usable, I might build my own. IDK, I guess we'll see. If anyone is interested in working on it, maybe I'll get motivated to give it a go. The plan would be React Native or Flutter (haven't decided which), I'm down with either, though my preference is React Native.

I also come from using Infinity, I'd love if it were ported to Lemmy or forked. It's FOSS, so I'm surprised there aren't any yet.
