Is there a way I can bind sync to be my default app for links to my instance? Annoying that someone sends me a lemmy.ca link and I have to go find it manually in sync, or just view it in my browser.
Android Settings -> Apps -> Sync -> Open by default
Ah that makes sense, thanks! I was looking in the sync options.
Edit: odd it doesn't work. I added every domain, then click a lemmy.world link in discord and it still opens chrome
hmmm, not sure if chrome has this, but for Firefox I use the "Open in App" button, since I have "Open links in apps" set to Never.
Though I can replicate your issue, clicking a lemmy link in Discord brings me to Firefox, whereas clicking a YouTube link in Discord takes me directly to the YouTube app (technically the ReX app)
