Hi, can I ask you what was done to tackle this request?
I just noticed that it's marked as "complete", but if I click on the same link provided in the example, I'm still asked to open the link in the external browser. Is it an option somewhere that I need to toggle on?
The fix for this was a compromise. I initially tried treating all links as possible Lemmy links but it caused a large delay when opening any link. Instead the compromise is to check if the link is a Lemmy link in the link preview dialog. If the link is detected to be a lemmy link an option appears to open the link within the app.
Ooh, I feel dumb. I was tapping "Open link", didn't notice that the "tap to open in app" was itself tappable.
Thank you a bunch!
I admit the UI itself can be improved. I'll leave myself a note to take a look for a future release.
