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.

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.

And this is an even bigger problem on communities on other instances, since you are not only signed out, you don't even have an account there. So you are forced to go back to your instance and search for it, hoping that it is seen through federation. imho what should happen in that case is that Jerboa should "adapt" the URL so that you see the community as from your own account's instance. So if I click on a link to blah.ml/c/blahcommunity, that should actually open lemmy.ml/c/blahcommunity@blah.ml. Hm, but actually it shouldn't do that because it should just open the community directly in Jerboa. But that would be second best.
