Aww yeah we can block instances now

Thank you for hosting us!

Note that Jerboa 0.50 which is still the latest in the Play Store is broken with Lemmy 0.19. The newly released 0.53 should work but it's not on the stores yet.

Suggestion:

Check that the compatible Jerboa version is on the Play Store before upgrading Lemmy. That way non-technical users like my wife won't see breakage. Or alternatively upgrade several days after the official Lemmy release.

Is there any way to turn off the gold highlight on new comments? It makes things harder to read, and it's also quite ugly.

Thank you for the upgrade. Lots of new features and truly needed features are in this release: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-12-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.0_-_Instance_blocking,_Scaled_sort,_and_Federation_Queue

And thank God, I can now block instances that are a nuisance.

old.lemmy.ca is having issues with the update as well. voting doesn't seem to always work, and I couldn't post from it. Not a huge deal, there's always the normal mode.

I got Jerboa 0.0.54 via the Play Store. F-Droid seems to still be on 0.0.52.

Update

The Subscribed view consistently fails to load additional posts. When I tried to add a screenshot to this post it gave me an "incorrect_login" toast. Adding text seems fine. 🤔

Adding a pic via the web app works fine:

Update 2

It seems like they were both fixed today:

• https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/1305
• https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/1302

They haven't been released yet.

Update 3

And now w patiently await 0.0.55 to reach the stores.

Update 4

Aaand released:

Uploading images works. So does the Subscribed view.

It looks like this concludes the saga of the 0.19 release and Jerboa. 😅

Along with the YOLO up to the new version, comes new bugs!

0.19.1 hopefully coming soon.

Auto expand media is awesome! Shitpost scrolling on the desktop just got elevated.

I am really liking Scales, Auto Expand Media, and Open in new Tab. Very nice QoL improvements.

The highlight on new comments is ugly as sin. Do not want.

Thanks!

Voyager on Android completely lost my login credentials on update, which is weird. I had to re-add my account. Working fine now though! :)

Looks like this update may have broken access on Eternity for android.

Cool!

However, I notice upvote/downvote and community block actions appear to break when using old.lemmy.ca on desktop (guess whomever maintains that theme has work to do.. just noting here).

EDIT: Whoops, my bad for not reading further down, others have reported. Thanks.

Clearing app data and updating to Jerboa v.54 fixed my problems logging into lemmy.ca. Glad to see the new features. I can finally put lemmynsfw.com to rest from my feed.

That was fast, I'm glad the update (appears to have) went smoothly. Thanks for keeping things running for us.

Edit: Damn, those usage statistics look way different when tracked in the reddit fashion. I guess that stands to reason, 90% lurkers (other than up/downvoting) is pretty standard.

Excellent!

It’s causing problems with Memmy on iOS, with spurious errors. Even though Memmy’s store page says the fix a month ago was in preparation for this new release. I logged out and re authenticated and it seems to be ok.

Voyager seems to be OK after upgrade, Eternity however spits 404 errors on upvotes etc

Way to go, thanks guys!

Thank you!

and updates on if we'll be able to donate to lemmy.ca in the near future? I know non-profit status was a goal before
