I’ve been seeing a lot of posts about people being stuck between server (lemmy 0.18) and client (Jerboa 0.0.33—35) versions (not installed from IzzyOnDroid and logged in) with Jerboa crashing. Here’s a way to avoid that issue while still being able to log in and browse both Lemmy 0.18 or older instances.

• Add IzzyOnDroid repo to F-Droid
• Delete app data from Android app info (edit)
• Uninstall current version of Jerboa
• Install 0.0.33 IzzyOnDroid version of Jerboa
• Set phone to Airplane mode
• Open Jerboa and use the hamburger menu to add your account
• Fill in server, username, and password
• Turn off Airplane mode
• Login

You’ll get a old server version notification of your server hasn’t updated but you’ll be able to use Jerboa regardless of server version.

Hope this helps!
