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.

are there any ways this app can interact with Mastodon users? (feddit.uk)

I heard on mastodon you can apparently interact with lemmy users, although it presents itself horribly. Is it possible with Jerboa to interact with mastodon?

I like how everyone is answering the literal question asked (is it possible? Yes!) and no one is picking up on the extremely obviously implied question of “how?”

(I don’t know how or I’d answer)

Mastodon users can see this thread in their app. It appears as a normal Tweet, and all the comments are replies to the Tweet.

You often see Mastodon Tweets when you change the sort from Local to All, but unless you pay attention you don't notice the difference

Not really. Maybe that's instance dependent but all I see is posts to lemmy communities. I know that mastodon users can post in lemmy communities by tagging the community and it shows up here but how would a tweet with no tags show up?

but how would a tweet with no tags show up

this comment here has no tags

i have no idea to see a random toot that is not connected to any lemmy post. putting the url in the search (like in mastodon) does nothing

That's an account from lemmygrad, so not a tweet. But I get that reply tweets could show up as comments.

No, i made the post and the comment with my account from mastodon.

But can I follow a specific Mastodon account?

I cannot find a way to follow accounts on Jerboa
