Jerboa development is going faster than ever. The number of commits increased a lot and the project counts 10 times as much contributors as before (5 from start till a couple of weeks ago, now 53).

Thanks to the devs for putting in the hard work!

    Yup, there was a pretty big change to support an upcoming lemmy release, and that was blocking changes. That has been merged, so now a bunch of pending changes have been merged.

    There are still a bunch of pending changes, but I expect a new release to come soon ahead of the lemmy upgrade.

    Just a heads up, Jerboa doesn’t support old lemmy versions, so get your admins to upgrade ASAP when the new version releases otherwise things will stop working.

      Is there an official source that states which versions are supported? I’ve searched but so far couldn’t find anything.

        No, since it’s still in alpha, it’s whatever the latest stable lemmy version is. Some of the devs want to maintain at least the older API, but the maintainer isn’t interested (they’re also working on lemmy and lemmy UI).

        So right now that’s lemmy 0.17.4, and the next alpha release (probably 0.0.35) that will change to 0.18. The next release will have an alert that warns you when the server is outdated, so I guess that’s about as official as it’s going to get.
