For the past day or so every time I try to open Jerboa it just crashes immediately without an error message why. Is there any scheduled update/fix for Jerboa? I’d like to be able to browse on mobile again and really enjoyed the app while it was working.

-posted from my pc (only because I can’t get the app to work)

    I had to clear all memory (not just the cache) then relogin. That sorted it. But I’ve since moved to Connect

    With latest updates with app and server-side it’s a lot more stable now. It will be weeks to months until the infrastructure can absorb new users.

      I actually have issues with wefwef now, gives me a lot of errors.

      But I think the next days will be a little rough because of many new signups.

        Maybe there are still older files in your installation that cause the errors? Have you tried to completely remove it?

        Since its a webapp it uses your mobile browser. So maybe another browser would work better.

    I have the same issue. Deleting app data and cache stopped the crash at the start, but I cannot log into my account. It seems the reason for the crash was that the lemmy instance I’m on (and that I was still logged into) uses version 17.x, when Jerboa requires 18.x.

      They fixed it this morning, but it’s still being buggy for me. I think it’s more on Lemmy’s/.world’s side, at this point. That being said, I’m starting to like wefwef a lot.

    I think Jerboa was always only going to be a best-effort app that the dev even recommended you fork if you want to see changes.

    I strongly suggest you use the more up and coming popular apps, like Liftoff and Thunder.

    I cleared the app data and that fixed it, but signed me out of beehaw and I can’t get back into my normal account on my phone until it’s updated.

    I still can’t switch from local to all. Switched to Thunder which has been great!

    Edit: Jerboa back to working great and my top app again.

    Didn’t work for me cos it only supports version 0.17.4 or smth whereas lemmy.world requires version 0.18 and above.

      Same here, but it will be fixed/changed eventually. Read a long post about it, and it seemed a tad complicated.

      You got it reversed, lemmy.world is at 0.17.4 and Jerboa is already at 0.18.0. No logins are possible, and if already logged in it works with some crashes.

      There’s a bug on 0.18.0 that causes problems for some features of lemmy.world, they’re trying to update the instance to 0.18.1.
