feature request: when clicking on a link to a community, open it in Jerboa
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.
IIRC the Android OS requires the app to define which URL handlers it should be able to intercepts at compile time as a security measure so that an app can't decide to intercepts URL it shouldn't after being installed without your knowledge or consent.
The nature of the Fediverse makes it difficult to achieve that without hardcoding and maintaining a list of instances URLs in the app.
