Jerboa on fdroid
So I'm very new and I tried Jerboa using lemmy.world and it's saying incorrect login.
I'll bet you have a password that's more than 60 characters.
If so, the lemmy UI force truncated it to 60 characters when you signed up. When you login through the browser, the UI truncates it again, so it still works.
Jerboa does not truncate your password, so you get a failed login.
Options:
Only put the first 60 characters into Jerboa.
Or
Change your password to something between 10 and 60 characters, then try again.
ETA: The Lemmy devs are aware this is dumb and are discussing what the right fix is.
