(not because of Infinity obv, it’s an amazing reddit app)

    I’d use jerboa but it just crashes all the time. Hangs, deletes comments and just isn’t up to scratch yet. So far tildes and kbin have been best die me. I jump around on all the Lemmy’s but can’t get my head around how to follow some subs.

    Just trying to recreate my reddit feeds.

      The issue isn’t Jerboa but rather the server you’re on is dying from too many users. Next Lemmy version (which hopefully will come out before the end of the month) is expected to fix a lot of problems

        But it is also a Jerboa problem. Jerboa should handle network/instance stability better and it doesn’t. It’s getting better, but it’s still very much focused on adding features instead of improving stability.

        So if you see crashes, even if it’s totally an issue with your instance, please still report it. I work on the app and try to fix that kind of thing, and it’s a lot easier with a bug report that says what specifically you were doing.

          Yup, all the Lemmy servers use the same version (minus some semantics). If you played Minecraft before, you can imagine it like that - Mojang (people behind Minecraft) release a new version, and all the servers update to it

            Unfortunately never played it. I do.not understand the instances and different Lemmy’s. Makes sense they all use the server. Probably would be good idea to have them separated as we know centralized can be corrupted.

            I use kbin as well. Does that pull from Lemmy ? Kbin and Lemmy world seem to work far better than the jerboa app. I’m just pinging around them. Have tried tildes too but it’s invite only.
