    Honestly Jerboa is so polished that it feels like an android system app.

      The scrolling lag is still an issue though. Go from Summit, Voyager, or Sync to Jerboa and it’s definitely noticeably worse.

        I tried Infinity just now too and it also feels instant to scroll there.

        Not sure what they are doing but some apps feel very quick and other don’t.

        I only tried Liftoff and the lag was significantly worse there. Maybe they fixed it by now. As for Jerboa it isn’t that bad that it would bother me much. Honestly I’m not even noticing it anymore.

          It’s funny. I hadn’t really noticed it til the comment pointing it out made me think about it. It’s still not enough to bother me, but I will say that other apps do feel smoother when casually scrolling the feed.

            But do they have such a clean and minimalist UI like Jerboa? I really love how this app sticks to the flat and simlke material UI without any visual clutter. I mean have you seen the size of the app? It’s some few megabites!

        I wonder if it has to do with preloading images and stuff to make the scrolling smoother. This could be a negative for people on mobile data that don’t have unlimited data plans. If that’s the case, being able to toggle preloading on wifi only might be something other apps would want to implement.
