The 0.18 version of Lemmy was announced. This will solve many issues.
But we can’t upgrade yet because the captcha was removed, and captcha relied on Websockets, which are removed in 0.18 so despite the devs agreeing on my request to add captcha back, this will not be until 0.18.1. Without captcha we will be overrun by bots.
Hopefully this 0.18.1 will be released soon, because another issue is that the newest version of the Jerboa app won’t work with servers older than 0.18. So if you’re on Lemmy.world, please (temporarily) use another app or the web version.
For now i made a shortcut on my phone’s home screen to this lemmy instance to act as a quasi lemmy client, works pretty well for the time being.
Lemmy is a progressive web app and can be installed directly
Heres a link to the instructions to install pwas from google Install pwa
… so i read the instructions and its not too helpful. Open lemmy in chrome on android then hit the 3 dots in the top right and near/above the option to open the desktop site you should see an install lemmy button
Can confirm that this does not work with Chrome on Android.
