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.

[Edit] ok I was blind, there is already an option for that in the settings called "show action bar by default for comments" not sure, if this came with .33 or not but I'm happy now :D

But I agree with Celsiuss - long and short press actions should be swapped!

Looks good!

One suggestion:

Can you make an option to hide the controls for comments (up/downvote, permalink and so on...) and make them only pop up when I press on the comment?

When reading the comments of a post, the controls take away a lot of screen space. I don't want to interact with very comment, so hiding the controls would declutter the comment section imho

Example of what I mean in Sync for reddit:

Controls Hidden

Controls shown

I used to see this action bar in my "messages" tab but I now just see the collapsed version without the action bar, even if I press and hold.

I have action bar on by default.

Is there a way to turn it back on?

Edit: I can seem to tap on the upvotes section to bring up the action bar, but still can't seem to keep it persistent.

Edit 2: it also weird that the same interaction does different things based on the context. In a thread, that same button shows or hides replies. In the messages it hides the comment itself?

Loving it! Small bug: if I search a community and try to subscribe to it, Jerboa says I need to be logged in (even tho I already am). EDIT it seems to be working now. Weird

Loved it! Been using this client for a while and I like it currently but I like that better.

I'm loving the new AMOLED black!

There's a bug I'd like to make you guys aware of:

I could not reply to this post because the "comment icon" was missing. I had to turn my phone in landscape mode just to see it. I can see it on other comments without doing this though. Just not on the OP.

The Black is amazing. Comparable to Boost.
