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.

Reading through the code of the dependency is not required. What is required is reading through the merge request to see if the dependency isn't used for malicious or wasteful purposes. Checking on the authenticity of the dependency is a good idea too.

It's not the dependency itself that concerns me. It's the usage of it in the app. As we already know, it's easy to insert trojan code in testing procedures.
