Jerboa currently ignores single line breaks. I think single line breaks should be implemented as the only other alternative is double line breaks which are not always appropriate.

Agreed, standards are what make the Fediverse possible. Rendering posts from other platforms is already messy: we've all seen the posts coming from Mastodon where the title is the whole body of the post, cut at the character limit. If Lemmy starts doing its own Markdown flavor it would further degrade the integration with other Fediverse platforms.

Yup, and it's one thing I absolutely hated about new reddit.

For example, some links the worked just fine on new reddit didn't work on old Reddit or third party apps because Reddit allowed nonstandard links. And then there was spoiler tags, which used a bespoke syntax that took a while for third party apps to support and has edge cases that caused rendering issues. Spoiler tags still don't work on Jerboa because it's not part of the market spec, but at least Lemmy documents it so it'll probably come eventually.

We should stick to standards as much as possible so things work well across clients.

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.
