    The fact that Jerboa makes me click an Imgur link rather than embedding the Imgur content under this post when I click it feels like a possible area for improvement.

      Thank you :) I’m a third party but I’ll try to get my changes added to the official app

    It would be really nice if the app could keep its scroll position more reliably. It always refreshes if I switch to e.g. messages or open my foldable.

    Great work! One suggestion: I think the bookmark icon on Jerboa should probably be changed to match the star icon on the lemmy instance website.

    Preferably I would like the opposite (the star to change to a bookmark), but either way I think it should probably match.

    Any news on when this might be rolled out?

    Looks awesome, but please add a separate setting to set the font size of the front page and the posts/comments.

    The way it works currently, front page font becomes too small when changed in settings.

    Since you are asking, here’s my primary 2 complaints about the UI so far that so far seem unaddressed:

    • not having placeholders for community icons and user avatars is jarring. This pushes the text around which makes each card slightly missaligned with the last depending on if there are icons/avatars. This gets tiring to read. It doesn’t need to be fancy. It could be a black box, or even just padding.
    • in the same vein, it’s hard to see what post/comment link is in what instance. This is especially important because different moderation rules apply to different instances. Also, celebrate the diversity of federation!

      I was thinking about the placeholder icon thing for a while, it’s a big pet peeve of mine too but I’m not sure what to put instead.

    Absolutely love it. Progress is happening so fast! Before long this is going to be a world class app!

      And it’s progress we can hold on to forever. It’s not going to arbitrarily stop working some day.

    Will you make a PR? I see all this concepts here, but imaging something is not as easy as actually implementing it. Hope, Jerboa’s dev team will grow with current reddit user influx.

      This is fully implemented and I’m working on cleaning up the git history to make a PR

        That’s great, thank you! Went to jerboa gh repo yesterday to check out stats and was pleased to see good spike on commit count just after reddit situation began.

    I think it looks pretty nice, I think adding the ability to jump to the context of a reply to a comment would be pretty cool as well.

    Like seeing the little notification for it in your messages and being able to tap on it to bring you to the context would be nice. I got pretty used to it in BaconReader.
