For this, you would need the version 0.0.34 of the Jerboa app. Now follow these steps.
- Install Jerboa v0.0.34
- Turn off your wifi and data connection or else the app would crash after trying to load anything from any Lemmy instances.
- Go to the log in page off the app.
- Give your Lemmy server address, username and password.
- Turn on your WiFi/data connection.
- Touch the log in button. You would be logged in to the app shortly and use the app.
If you wish, you can update the app. You will get a warning as the version is too low but you would still be logged in.
Nah I dunno, maybe because I’d already signed in before the upgrade today I’ve not had the issue.
Others have said that it does sign you in even in spite of this. However if not, I guess you’re SOL until v0.18 becomes adpoted. Even then, I know lemm.ee isn’t going to be updating because of the lack of captcha, and I wouldn’t be surprised if others are holding off also. In which case it might not be until 0.18.1 comes along.
