Ive been getting a bug where typing in the app, like a comment or something, if I repeatedly press backsapce to fix a typo or something, it will delete the spaces before words.

Also saving an image crashes the app every time.

And sometimes the names of communities in feed get their last word removed. So I would see post from ‘you should’ rather than ‘you should know’

And also, the app constantly goes back to the top of ‘Subscribed - Active’. So if ive been browsing ‘All - Top day’ for an hour, sometimes clicking on a post and then backing out again will jump straight back to top of ‘Subscribed - Active’.

Edit: a one that comes up for me too is getting messages appear on screen for a couple of seconds. Sometimes they say ‘Timeout’ but other times its ‘Value <html’> of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject’

Not sure what that means but just thought I’d mention it here in case anyone else is experienceing similar

    “value of type java. String cannot be converted to JSON object” is basically every 1/3 post.

    Heard from folks the app crashes the instant they opened it.

    Reuses comments section from previous posts.

    Can’t differentiate search by content vs search for communities,

    Can’t just paste a community URL, or paste a post URL into search

      Value/JSONOBJECT error happens to me constantly. usually when navigating to comments, a community,a post by someone from their profile,etc. Probably the biggest blocker to using the app right now.

    Weevils.

    Sometimes when I look at a thread, it will show the comments from the previous thread I viewed.

    There’s also another error I’m getting: Value <html> of type java.lang.String cannot be conver…

    This usually ends up in the wrong comments bug, no comments, no post, can’t make comment, etc.

      Yeah, it looks like Jerboa will reuse the comment section, so you’ll see the previous thread’s comments until the new ones load.

    Thanks everyone for these reports! Please don’t hesitate to report them to GitHub so the devs see them and prioritize them.

    I’ll try to sift through these and get them added, but I’m probably not going to get everything.

      Hey this might be a dumb question, but I’m not very familiar with Github and bug reports, could you link a guide or video or something that basically covers bug reports like these but for dummies. I would be afraid I dont provide relevant information or cause confusion for a developer trying to fix a bug ive reported.

    I’ve had a bug were I try to scroll back up and it scrolls itself back down, so you never get anywhere - even though it looks like it’s moving.

      Can you provide more info on the bug? Like you just type a message, and then mash backspace and it deletes the wrong thing?

      I’m not seeing that on my device. But if it’s reproducible, I can file a bug for it.

      Btw, what version of Android do you have? And what version of the app?

        In my case, I have the typing bug. I’m on Android 9 and am using app version 0.0.33 (the most recent update from f droid)

        And yes, basically, say I’m typing a comment like this one. I’m writing a sentence and make a typo in a word. If I start repeatedly hitting backspace to go back and fix the typo, it will start removing the spaces before words.

        It does it in order, working backwards from the last word you typed.

    I have the same problem, and it makes commenting on the app aggravating, and posting on the app virtually impossible.

    I’ve been noticing that when I try to paste something on mobile, like a link, into my comment it will move the cursor to the beginning of my comment instead of where I want the pasted link to go

      Ive seen this too. Sometimes if ive made a lot edits to a comment, it will move the cursor some place else. So a sentence or link even will just randomly be cut in half and the other half will somewhere else in the comment.

    can’t follow links in comments to communities and can only join them after finding a post and clicking the link.

    also searching communities doesn’t seem to work.

    Random crashes; opening a community shows the last community I viewed for a moment; can’t jump to comment replied via inbox; viewing comments that were in the inbox only sometimes clears them; inbox count usually does not match the number of messages present; some comments are not posted, with inscrutable technical errors popping up in unhelpful toasts.

    For the ppl experiencing the typing bug, can you report it on GitHub along with a video of it. It hasn’t been reported yet and I can’t reproduce it.

      What device and android version are you using? Do you have a custom version of android installed by any chance?

    Scrolling is really really laggy and buggy. This only happens on my local feed, and to some extent on the federated section. Not sure why that happens.

    I don’t know if it’s just my device, but I’m having a really hard time scrolling the feed. The scrolling feels very “heavy” and janky.

    The app doesnt seem to like images in the comments very much. When I try to scroll while one of those images is on the screen, the comment section jumps up and down.

    I’ve got some white flashes when changing page (using Dark mode)

    Also, crashes everytime I click on my user settings (click on the button = application closes)
