    l don’t know anything about server upgrades but you just totally trapped me for a good 15 seconds of furious screen tapping, trying to press that “ok” button.

    Based on comments in other posts, this instance has not upgraded yet because captcha is not working in the most recent version.

    I’m unsure if there’s a way to bypass that screen, I’m still logged in on mine but I did it before the app update.

      Thank you for the info, loving this community already as opposed to reddit where I would’ve been downvoted to oblivion for asking a question

        You can use an older version of Jerboa for now. I’m posting from 0.0.33 right now. There’s also now thunder for lemmy and connect for lemmy but they’re newer so not as fully featured.

        Edit: I have also since found Summit and Lemmynade

        I’m still holding out for Sync for Lemmy though. (kbin support will be added in future releases too!)

        sh.itjust.works has been updated to 0.18 now anyway btw.

          0.0.33 seems to just crash on launch for me, i ve installed an even older version logged in on that and upgraded to 0.0.35 now and it gives me the message every time i launch it but it seems to stay logged in

            I’m having trouble now too actually. I tried installing the updated version from Fdroid since our server was upgraded but it fails. Even if I uninstall the version I got from the Play Store.

            It’s odd.
