The current alpha is going great!
I’d like to make a few requests, especially regarding link handling.
- Lemmy links (e.g. a lot of people linking recommended communities) with this app
- Other links in regular browser, not in-app one
I hope that we’ll reach beta (or better, stable) soon!
Agreed. Community@instance.com would currently trigger my email client. If Lemmy could intercept those while in-app, that’d be great.
What should the behavior be for something like
https://lemmy.ml/c/jerboa? What abouthttps://lemmy.ml/u/timkenhan? Should those be handled by Jerboa, or only handle lemmy-specific links like:- /c/jerboa
- !jerboa@lemmy.ml
- @utimkenhan@lemmy.ml
I’m leaning toward having lemmy handle as many links as it can, and opening a web view if it can’t verify that it’s a lemmy instance, and then have long-click open externally. Or something like that.
On top of that just being able to select text from a comment would be nice, currently can’t highlight text in comments so when there’s a link to a website you have to open it and copy from there for instance
