Why does Jerboa often tell me my account is being verified? I’ve had it ages
I didn’t expect to find this here. You can ask Jerboa stuff in the Jerboa community.
We used to receive lots of noise regarding “Jerboa not working” due to external factors, i.e not caused by Jerboa. To avoid this and help/inform the user. I created this “verification” system.
Upon account login/switch or invalidation (like networks calls start failing)
the active account under goes verification.
This means Jerboa checks if:
- phone has internet
- account still has a valid login token
- The instance is not down
- Your account is not banned
- Your account is not deleted
Usually this doesn’t take long. I should probably document this somewhere but not sure where.

As far as I’ve been able to tell it happens when your instance is having stability issues. I tend to see that message at the same time posts will fail to load.
