When clicking lemmy links [email protected] the app opens it using safari. Would be nice to have it open in the app instead so we can browse it properly
This is something that is being worked on. You can follow the status of this change here: https://github.com/mormaer/Mlem/pull/239
I can tell you that this feature works pretty great but at its current state it has a few caveats, unlike in many other platforms links in the Lemmy platform, might take many shapes So, in order to resolve them all, we need to ask the Lemmy servers about those links, that query sometimes takes up to 10 seconds, and in the current implementation, that’s 10 seconds where nothing seem to happen on screen,
So not only is it a massive change in the codebase behind the scene also, it leaves a bitter taste in terms of UX :/ So I’d wager this still needs a little bit of work
How often are you clicking on links for new communities - I assume not too often. So maybe a small kitten message with “redirecting… this may take a few seconds” wouldn’t be too bad for now (at least for me).
But I’m also no dev and have no clue how any of this would be implemented haha
I’d say it’s looking pretty solid

This looks more than pretty solid imho - that’s nearly seamless, very cool!
Hm forgot to switch accounts, this is the account I use to test all sorts of crazy shit XD
