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.

[Question] How to get Jerboa to open links to more instances? (lemmy.world)

In my image is the app settings for Jerboa, and I can see that it will open links from those instances automatically (and it seems to work fine) - however, I'm on Lemmy.world, and it's not one of them, so links there (or to other instances) open in a browser.

The "Add link" option is greyed out there. Is there anything I can do within Jerboa to enable more instances to play nice? Or is it something that the instances themselves would need to implement in some way?

Thanks!

I don't see it either. Just updated to the latest version and I can't scroll through all of the options in Look and Feel. You can barely see an option check box at the bottom, but I can't scroll the screen down to see it, so maybe it's there, I just can't get to it?

you're in the settings within Jerboa.

you need to open Androids App Info of Jerboa, an Android Settings Menu about the installed App Jerboa, not a setting within Jerboa.

Yeah, I did this too. I was just showing that I can't scroll down in the settings section of Jerboa. Maybe should have started a new thread for that. Here's my phone settings

but... it's there... "supported links"!

Yeah, but it only features 8 or so instances and there's no way currently to add any more (nor to replace any of those that are there). It'll get worked out, though, I'm sure.
