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.
the back button works fine when I use Firefox and install a PWA with it.
Yea I can hold down on the button and get the normal history menu from Firefox. They may be using gesture navigation tho and idk how that is affected.
I use gesture navigation and the back button works without reloading.
I think android has both gestures with a back button and without (using a gesture for back) which I think is giving people issues, tho I’ve never used it myself bc I cannot stand it, IMO it’s change for the sake of change.
You can see it happening here https://streamable.com/6alycz
like I’ve said, it works fine for me: https://streamable.com/fb300o
Looks like 0.18.0 update broke it. 0.17.4 was good.
