I love the app, first and foremost. It’s hands-down the best way to view Lemmy posts, and it feels amazing to scroll and interact with.

When I click a link that opens in a browser, though, it opens without any frame around it and can’t open into any third party apps. I know it may not impact everyone, but for me this is pretty difficult to get around. Some use cases:

  • I clicked the link to view Liftoff! in the Play Store, and I couldn’t click to actually download the app. Sure, I already have this installed, but it could happen for other apps.
  • I was reading an article that I wanted to share externally, but the menu for my browser wasn’t available to share that content.
  • I clicked a YouTube video and wanted to watch it in the official app instead of the browser. There was no way to open the link in another app.

Again, loving the app but this would make it so much cooler!

    I would like to echo this sentiment and add that I would like to be able to open in my own browser as it uses ad/script blockers and gives me access to a reader mode.

    Generally having the option to view content outside the app would be a great QoL.
