Idk it just seems to work/look better and doesn’t sign me out whenever I go on some certain instances

    Absolutely not! Clicking on links to a LOT of other communities/posts ends up opening a web browser within Jerboa to view the content. I got so tired of it that I moved to the mobile web site and now the user interface is consistent.

      That is very true, the app is definitely not perfect and I still do use desktop for moments like those, I just find that more manageable than it signing me out everytime I’m on certain instances

      checkout the Android App settings in Open by default > Add link
      in latest app update they added new community links

        Yeah, so there are 8 links, but thousands of Lemmy servers. This will never scale and there’s no way I’m going to go do that every time I update, which will never have an up to date list of all relevant domains. This isn’t even a valid workaround, much less a real solution unfortunately.

        Also, those are all second level domains, but I’m seeing most Lemmy servers are at subdomain level. This means the system would be trying to send say mail.lemmy.ml to Jerboa, which it isn’t equipped to handle nor would I want it to.

          IF Lemmy/kbin truly take off after a bit, I almost guarantee the link format will be handled appropriately at pretty much all levels from OS to browser, just the same as an email/URL/whatever.

          Big if, but one can hope.

      That’s fixed in an upcoming release. I forget if it’s 0.0.34 or whatever comes next, but that was implemented in the last week.

      It’s a fast moving project, so check back in every week or two. It may be a bumpy ride in the next couple weeks as lemmy (the server bit) gets a new release and instances slowly upgrade, so have some patience with it in the meantime.
