Hi, not sure if this is the right place to post. I’m moving over to Jerboa from rif and I’m having a hard time changing my phone settings. I’m on Android 10. When I used rif, I could open reddit links - and only reddit links - within rif and stay in the app. With Jerboa, clicking on instances, communities, or user pages in comments automatically starts up Gmail. I get that fediverse is based on the same concept as email, but how do I get my phone to stop assuming every @ is an email address?

    I think it’s already there (just have to activate it on the app permissions), but jerboa doesn’t correctly open links yet so I wouldn’t do it yet

    We only now realize how important is the link handling and how convenient writing r/subreddit was on reddit. Often a birthofasub happened from users simply composing a subreddit link on the fly that doesn’t exist yet.

    afaik that’s because the links are handled by your phone and not the app.

    Each instance has it’s own domain name and Jerboa would need to support all of those to stay in the app itself. You can view these by going into App Info -> Open by default
