So Jerboa broke on my phone just now and I didn’t want to stop browsing Lemmy. Unfortunately no suitable alternative was found so I just decided to check if I could open it in my browser and install it.

To my surprise, it worked. And it works really well quite frankly. Sure, the UI is different, but I’m not at all missing any features.

Did any of you guys try it as well? What’s your opinion?

If not, did you even know that was a possibility? It quite frankly never crossed my mind, because Reddit and other platforms always force you to use an app when you open them in a browser.

    I have noticed that when I go back to the main feed that the specific position on the page might be a post or two above or below the one that I was viewing, but I haven’t experienced anything like the page not showing the post I was reading at all, or the entire feed resetting.

    What behavior are you seeing?

    I’m running Android 13, so it might be an issue with other Android versions or iOS.

      The entire feed is indeed resetting as if I refreshed it. I’m also on Android 13.

      EDIT: Just browsing using chrome or firefox has the same result…
