Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Lemmy.world banning piracy made me realize it's something a client can solve (sh.itjust.works)

If I was logged into several instances at once in the client and seeing the composite feed and then could choose instance when replying or posting (with some set default, like from: field in e-mail clients) lemmy.world could ban piracy all it wants and it'd still be in my feed without me having to leave it or change instances.

I don't think it has to do with ideologies but more like the admins can't afford a fight against the very same people you're talking about.

Meh. That’s not really how it works though. If pirated content is not actually spread on the platform nothing illegal is happening, and regardless, long before any fight was going to happen there would have been takedown request.

Sure, but why risk it when this is essentially a volunteer project?

I'm not saying they're right. I'm just saying I understand their concerns. Others don't care and allow piracy content just fine.
