I’m curious if anyone knows how things are looking for the app. Since the most recent update to Lemmy there’s been no ability to read or send comments/messages.

Is anyone else having this issue or is this just on my end?

If I was more comfortable coding, I’d offer to help but I’d be a liability than anything. Yet, I’m wondering if utilizing something like perplexity.ai or chatGPT (ideally open-assistant in the near future) could make app updates an easier on the team.

    Fdroid version is lagging behind quite a bit.

      Had to do with a gradle version, I pinged them about re-enabling it. Its also on IzzyOnDroid 's repos.

    I had the same issue with the latest version. Setting language to English didn’t fix it. Uninstalling and the reinstalling the app seems to have fixed the issue.

    Edit: or not, I can’t see all the comments.

    Edit 2: removed the English setting and I can now see more comments.

    It works. The issue is most likely related to your language settings! What have you got them set to in Jerboa?

      I’m not sure where to find the language setting in the app, clicking through the settings now and I haven’t seen the option. The error message I receive when trying to read messges is “Value Query of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject”. Does this match up with the issue being due to the language setting?

        Ah, no, that sounds like something else.

        A work around to try (not a fix) is to sign out of your account and then sign back in again. I had an issue around the time of the upgrade. My login session had apparently terminated, though Jerboa didn’t recognise that as having happened. I got all sorts of weird error messages until I logged in again.
