A beautiful Lemmy app for browsing Lemmy on the go!
Be aware that this is a closed source app, and since lemmy doesn't currently have proper oauth, that it could potentially be storing your login creds. Be very wary of any lemmy app that isn't open source.
That said, this dev is a legend and has been around for over a decade. His reddit app was monetized directly through buying a pro version of the app.
I'm a big fan of trustless computing, which requires apps to be open source, or at the very least, source available.
Trust and security just don't mix in my eyes, since supply chain attacks are much easier when using a trusted platform vs a trustless platform, where it's still possible to perform a supply chain attack, but since there are more eyes on it, it is much harder.
Yeah, and also I left reddit not to use other proprietary software.
An Open Source app that you don't compile yourself after reviewing the source code has the exact same risks.
There is no guarantee that the version of Jerboa you install from the Play Store corresponds to the source code you see on GitHub.
It's also on f-droid, which does their own builds, and you could also compare the build with one you do on your own machine. So no, you don't have to trust me.
This is kind of where I'm at. Using Jerboa (thanks for that, btw) rn, and probably going to switch over to LemmInfinity once that's more stable.
Is Lemmy planning on implementing a proper oauth down the road?
There are some ideas for it, and a PR which puts some of them out there, but not anytime soon.
Why would anyone get Lemmy with adds or paywalled features when there are plenty of Foss/adfree options?
Because it is a freaking awesome app and has a huge amount of followers, it is worth giving it a glance at least, if it is as polished as the former Reddit app then I assure you it is worth it.
I expect his years of experience will make a better crafted experience worth paying for.

The link doesn't work for me and I'm not able to find it if I go to the app store myself.
I'm assuming the developer has not made it available in your country yet. Or perhaps your country doesn't have the pre-register feature?
Works for me in Canada.
Can confirm it works in the US too.
