Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

feature request: when clicking on a link to a community, open it in Jerboa (lemmy.world)

Or maybe it is only me?

When I'm clicking a link to a community on the instance I'm logged into (Lemmy.world), the community opens in my web browser rather than in jerboa. Given, this is annoying especially when I want to subscribe to that community.

I should note that I'm using a url checker app so this might be the reason for such behavior.

I think they might have a more general feature in mind. Basically when you click a link, it will check if it is a fediverse link that it can display, so that it will not be limited to the instance you have logged in or hardcoded instances.

Tusky does something similar. The downside is that it is not so responsive when opening a link. But the nature of fediverse makes link opening in app hard to implement.
