I think having an app to use this site easily on mobile will obviously be incredibly useful and can help this place grow even further.
It may still be too early but if no such app exists so far are there any plans for one?
Edit: Guys, looks like Jerboa started acting funny, I keep logging in but the app insists that I’m not logged in. I’m on the mobile site for now until I figure it out.
Im using the Jerboa app, close enough to RiF for me. Edit: can browse your local instance or all of lemmy
I tried using the Jerboa app but I swear it errored out on me constantly to the point I just went back to the mobile site. I don’t know if the high traffic lately or something was the culprit so I may give it another shot
The high traffic isn’t helping at all and it was smoother last night than today. I’ve been getting a lot of timeouts.
It’s not without its faults though and I’ve had other weird errors.
If Jerboa does not work for you (which it should not as it works for many), you can always use the webapp installed through your favourite browser. The webapp is actually pretty good.
Or do you mean the webapp with “the mobile site”?
No, I meant an app like Jerboa. I’ve been using it for a few minutes now, so far so good.
Just started trying out the webapp, and yep it’s very nice. Thanks for the suggestion!
That is great to hear. Have fun.
Nice, thank you!
Seems that it doesn’t have a list of communities function, or did i miss it. Only my subscriptions … meaning i’ll have to find that on the website for now and subscribe anywhere even if i’m just reading?
You can see local/subs/all from the hamburger on the side which will give different feeds, should be able to search for communities from the second icon on the left at the bottom but doesnr list for that id use something like Community browser but then you can find it in the app.
Is this what youre talking about?
Ahaaa! Yes that is what i missed. It still lacks listing all communities at an instance and some other general functionality i will not iterate here, but a way of subscribing through Jerboa was what i wanted. Thanks!
No worries, happy to help. There is Jerboa@lemmy.ml where there appears to be lots of discussion on it.
