As the title says, if I click on a link to a Lemmy post that was deleted, or can’t be found for whatever reason, Jerboa goes back to the start of the feed instead of going back to where I was.

Especially annoying when I’ve been scrolling for a while. Sorry if it is a known bug, I haven’t seen any post about it.

Edit: trying to reproduce it, test

Edit2: this !madeupcommunity@sopuli.xyz lets me go back normally, so I think it’s a weird interaction when opening urls in jerboa through URLCheck that makes another instance of it, restarting it. If I find any links that actually break it without this interaction I’ll update the post, but until then, consider it a false alarm/special case ;)

      I linked a deleted post on the body of this post, try clicking on it. It should bring up a “couldn’t find post” screen and reset Jerboa after going back.

      I’ll say I also use the app URLCheck to open urls, and my phone uses MIUI OS, in case that’s relevant.

      Edit: okay I think it might not be jerboa’s fault, rather a weird interaction with URLcheck when opening links that aren’t handled directly by jerboa.

      I think it creates a different instance of the jerboa app or something, resetting it. But I have to do more testing.
