    Great update! Thanks!

    Only thing missing for now is the ability to sort comments in posts (as in new/popular/best,etc) like in the browser version, which has been sorely missing for the main community of one of my instances. Any info on when is that going to be implemented?

    Thank you devs, great release.

    Might I add some remarks?

    • The login feature is not really intuitive. When not logged in and pressing on any of the icons below, instead of displaying a “login first” notification, bring the user to the login screen?
    • Possibility to collapse and expand comment threads (as @meliache@feddit.de pointed out this already works by touching the comment)
    • When I click on a link and it for example opens an image, allow me to press the Android back button to go back to the discussion. Right now the only option is to press the back arrow hovering over the image.

    If there’s a better place to post these requests let me know and I’ll post it there

    The one feature I desperately want that Relay For Reddit has was a “Clear Seen Posts” button. You tapped it and it removed every post that I’d already viewed. There was another option to auto mark posts as “seen” if you just scrolled past them. I’d love for Jerboa to add that.

        Apps on Android 13 can support dynamic icons that adapt their background color based on the Monet coloring scheme.

        This means if I set a blue wallpaper, all my apps become uniform with a white logo and blue background. Apps that do not support this immediately become an eye sore, as you get a perfectly uniform screen… And suddenly that bright red Netflix logo, for instance.

            Are you asking about Jerboa or Android in general? It depends on your vendor’s Android version and skin. For Samsung devices, it’s found within the Color Palette options in the Settings app. On Realme and Oppo devices, it’s a beta feature in the home screen customization tab.

              I was looking for Samsung - thank you! Unfortunately it appears that a large percentage of my apps on my home screen don’t support it, so it looks pretty funky.

    I’m not even joking when I say that this app, despite being in alpha, is a more pleasant experience than the official Reddit app.

    • Jerboa has not begged me to turn on notifications
    • Jerboa has not yelled at me for taking a screenshot or begged me to send it as a link to the site instead
    • Jerboa has not warned me that I am “low on coins”
    • Jerboa has not tried to make me create an NFT avatar
    • Jerboa contains more formatting options in comments than the Reddit app (!)
    • Jerboa is smart enough to autopopulate the link title when I highlight text to be converted to a link. Reddit app still lacks this feature (!)

      It is extremely impressive how much money these large tech companies throw at an app and it turns out to be shitty as fuck. I wonder what bullshit features they pack in to make it like that.
