I use f-droid to update the app. Didn’t see the recent updates and saw the failed build after a search.
https://monitor.f-droid.org/builds/log/com.jerboa/71#site-footer

I don’t know much about programming… not sure whether this is an issue to be resolved from the side of Jerboa or F-droid. Had doubts whether I should inform of the issue in Jerboa’s github and sharing this here because of that.

F-droid seems to have done a recent cleanup of apps, focusing on non-foss stuff. Not sure if that has an effect, but sharing the info.

^Maybe related:
Builds of com.dessalines.thumbkey:96 and com.dessalines.rankmyfavs:11 seem to have failed too.
https://monitor.f-droid.org/builds/build (The page lists failed builds at the end)

Anyone know where the issue is to be notified to? Or where I can learn more about the issue? I did try to read the log file and this message seems noteworthy:

No hash for gradle version 8.9! Exiting.

      As a non-American I ABSOLUTELY need this functionality in Jerboa to filter out the political content that accounts for a huge part of the posts nowadays.

        Maybe you can open an issue for enhancement on github, if it’s not already there

        I generally don’t scroll through the main page/feed, but go to particular communities that I like.

        A multi-community option would be the thing that would be most useful for me.
        There is an issue on it on the lemmy github page, but there seems to be differences on how it should be implemented.

        Are there any apps that could emulate such features?
