Jerboa is also missing what I consider a necessary and basic feature of setting a default comment sort. If you want to see comments sorted by top then you have to make 2 extra clicks in every post you click into, it's extremely frustrating.
I like Jerboa, and I've even donated to them, but it's unusable in the current state. If you don't care about changing comment sorting, I guess it's fine, but I do.
Agreed.
One other thing that Jerboa has but very few other apps do - is the ability to automatically retrieve and put in the header of an article when you are about to post a URL of that article. IMO this is a basic feature that every app should have.
I still donate to Jerboa but I don't use it.
Too many bugs started popping up for me after code contributions flooded in, to the extent where the UI is not really navigatable on my device if the app is open for a few mins. That and the lag when scrolling comments, which I haven't experienced in other apps.
Occasionally I check on it once in a while, but I no longer enjoy using it as much as I did previously
