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.

Link redirect (lemmy.fmhy.ml)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I wish jebora could detect lemmy and other instances links and give me a redirect to my Accounts instance url.

Example:

I have an account on lemmy.ml and there is a comment with a link to a community on lemmy.world. Currently it opens a Browser window with lemmy.world/c/community.

I want that instead it links me to lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]

And preferably not even leaving jebora

Of course this isn't as easy. Probably you would have to check any link for a possible link to the local instance. Or is there a list of instances so you could check the Domain only?

This is partly coming with the next release (I think, it could be 0.0.35 instead). So things like this will work:

I forget if /c/[email protected] and /u/[email protected] will work, but that would be a pretty easy thing to add in (they'll at least link to https://lemmy.world/c/community and https://lemmy.world/u/user).

But the others you mentioned aren't planned because it would require some guesswork (i.e. how can I know that https://domain/c/community is a lemmy instance? Guess? Or have a list of popular ones? Or do a request before redirecting to a browser?). It's a bit more complicated, but it can certainly be done.
