On Android, several apps I’ve tried open links in an internal browser, which defaults to Chrome. Any external news/whatever link is ad-riddled and I have no way to redirect them to Firefox.
In addition, video links open in the official YouTube app instead of revanced, and imgur links open the website instead of an internal image viewer that views the direct image (or something like imgurviewer). Slide used to have it’s own internal YouTube viewer which broke only recently, probably because of changes to YouTube.
At the moment, using Lemmy though these apps is much worse than using slide for Reddit was. I almost forgot how terrible the web is for mobile use prior to getting on Lemmy - it’s unusable! Are any app developers working on this problem?
In android settings, in the Apps section (Talking about Samsung UI, might be a bit different for you) you can select Chrome and in “Set as default” you can clear the default, and it will ask you again what the default webbrower should be when openning links in apps.
It’s already set to Firefox, the apps either ignore the setting or have an internal web browser, which I like in principle, but because it’s chrome-based, it has no plugin/AdBlock capabilities
Links open in-app but with Firefox, Might be because I uninstalled Chrome and any other browser maybe ?
Web views always open in chrome unless if you disable it. Once disabled it will actually use other browsers web views if they have it.
