I want to like Jerboa. I really do. It has support for a lot of features Voyager doesn’t, like Matrix linking in profiles and full fledged CommonMark including spoilers which distressingly few Android clients support properly coughcoughSynccough. But it’s just so irritating to use. The recently added swipe gestures are so sensitive you can’t scroll unless you swipe perfectly straight up and down and there’s that bug with predictive text and deleting the space before a word when you press Backspace at the end instead of deleting the last letter which they still have not fixed.

I turned off the swipe stuff. The predictive stuff i didn’t know about since i don’t use it 😅
You can disable swipe gestures in Jerboa
But…but swipe gestures.
I love that feature and I’m glad Jerboa finally has it. I just wish it was less sensitive.
