New Lemmy app "Connect for Lemmy"

Does anyone else use the android app Connect for Lemmy? It reminds me of Infinity for Reddit. If you use it, do you like it better than Jerboa? I also found another new Lemmy app called Liftoff.

Using it to make this answer, and loving it Jerboa just keeps crashing instantly for me (android 12, Fairphone 4). Not sure why. But connect has just worked out of the box.

Jerboa works just fine for me. I'm also on a Fairphone 4, but running CalyxOS with Android 13. Maybe you can try Jerboa from another source like F-droid instead of Google Play or vice versa. You can also try the IzzyOnDroid repository on F-droid.

My jerboa was crashing so I tried to install it from Fdroid, and now I can't sign into either version. (Server isn't updated because of captcha issues with new update. Jerboa is preventing login because of this.)

So that prevented me from using jerboa.

Connect works still, shame jerboa is having issues.

The F-Droid version is now updated. Give it a shot.

I wish. I've updated it from both F droid and the play store and both say my instance version isnt on the current update so I can't sign in at all.

My instance isn't updated because the new update is fucky with captchas idk the fine details

These kind of growing pains certainly suck. I hope it settles down for you soon.

Mine has been crashing ever since the recent update specifically when I try to switch my filter from hot to new it seems to only happen if you do it right as you open the app
