It crashes when you open more comments. It crashes if you open some link types. It simply downloads the image if you click certain links. It gives weird errors regularly. It just doesn't look very polished.

It's a fine app, and it's free, and it existed when Sync didn't, but.....

For myself and my SO, almost everything. My feeds don't load until I refresh them 3/4x, comments disappear and reappear randomly, voting is a shot in the dark. It's made Lemmy pretty much useless for me. It seems like every other day or so it randomly signs me out, and it's a crap shoot as to whether I can sign back in without reinstalling.

SO can't comment, period. He's uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared cache, logged in and out a thousand times... Jerboa just will not let him comment. He also cannot load any feeds unless Jerboa feels like it. Overall a miserable experience.

I've had zero issues with Sync so far 🤷‍♀️

I'm not who you were talking to but instead the guy who suggested Jerboa in the first place. Jerboa has improved a lot just in the last month or so since reddit closed 3rd party apps. Currently my only real problems with Jerboa is that it doesn't play well with AOSP keyboards and if your instance is down and you try to log in, it will change your username to anonymous. And, basically you have to log back in (once your instance is working again). The log back in thing can be annoying since I apparently didn't choose the most stable instance. (I've got alternate accounts now for that.)

I also have been using Jerboa since joining Lemmy and have not come across a single issue personally. I'm trying Sync now but I haven't seen anything yet that sets it apart drastically from Jerboa so will probably stick with what I have been using.
