Hey y’all. Since Lemmy 0.18 has been out and sort of breaks Jerboa a bit, I will show off the versions I’ve cobbled together to patch it.
I started this repo to allow older versions of Android to run it (5.0 and up). There’s two release version that may be of interest.
(New June 29) v36-plus made it so that it is now possible to log into both 0.17.x and 0.18
- v35 takes the latest release from dessalines and made it compatible for older devices. Can only login to Lemmy 0.18 servers.
- v34-plus hotfix1 where I patched the crash on startup issue and allow anonymous logins on other servers by leaving the username empty. Can only login to Lemmy 0.17.x servers and below.
I’m hoping these will be helpful for anyone facing issues.
Thank you! I loved the updates on the new version but my home server is not .18
I’m glad this helps you! It’s called 34-plus because it incorporates a few but not all the features developed between v34 to 35, like comment sorting, better image and web viewer handling. Some of the missing features are top-level comment navigation and new themes.
Have you used 0.18? What differences have you noticed with the changes? I’m hoping they were tangible improvements.
