hello all. my team is using moko resources for KMM. first of all, thank you for all the work!

we’re working with formatting plurals and realized that the “zero” type works differently on iOS and on Android. saw this comment in one of the tests: // 0 on android in english will be other

the strings we’re hoping to achieve are:
x == 0 -> “Just now”
x == 1 -> “1 hour ago”
x > 1 -> “x hours ago”

how can we achieve this if android doesn’t match zero properly?

hi.
as i see - only way is process zero count by another logic.
something like

if(counter == 0) MR.strings.some_zero_text.desc()
else MR.strings.some_plural.desc(counter)

oh i see. this is how the pure android version works as well. i didn’t realize it was expected behavior. thank you
