Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Anyone else keep accidentally clicking on peoples usernames from the frontpage when you just want to open the post? (programming.dev)

Seems to be placed exactly where my finger wants to land when I'm not paying attention. I think it should be removed/moved to the full post view.

I'm willing and able to contribute that change myself if other people agree it would be a positive change.

Edit: Ah, realized this issue really only applies if you use the "list" display option. For the "card" display option usernames are far from where you'd typically click, and also account for a much smaller portion of the total clickable space.

Edit 2: Well I've opened a PR. Now we just wait https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/710

I used Relay for reddit, user and link buttons were hidden behind the swipe, while tapping always either expanded or collapsed comments.

I keep tapping random shit while attempting to do that.

Yeah, I'm also coming from Relay. You may be interested to see the list view rejiggering I just started working on which makes it look a bit more like Relay. Don't know if they'll accept it though. (Ignore the missing thumbnails everywhere, seems to happen in any build I make, even without any changes. Not sure why)

Looks good in my opinion, open a PR when you are finished and let's see if the maintainers like it

[–] Iron@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I like this better than the current layout! My brain wants the context of the community name before processing the title, so this flows more naturally.

[–] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 2 points 2 years ago

@greed. To easy to tap the wrong bit. On single line posts its the worst

[–] ProfessionalBoofis@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yup

[–] Iron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yes, all the time. Would love if this can be fixed, as I do prefer list view. It's not even necessary to remove the field entirely (it's useful to see sometimes), but it shouldn't function as a separate link. Same for the community name.

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago

Yes, I always go into someone's account when trying to go into comments.

[–] similideano@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Same here. I'd move the community link inside too.

[–] Cryst@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, I do.

[–] Ragoo@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

Since I changed to list view yesterday this happens all the time. I specifically came to this sub to look for this issue, so thank you for addressing it.

[–] 2muchcaffeine4u@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, same here. Keeps happening. I'd love to learn more about coding so I could help contribute to the app and to Lemmy in general. Right now I just have some rudimentary python but some hands on experience would be ideal.
