I'm trying to find an android mastodon app that can handle links from outside the app and open them in the app. Tusky is not going to implement this feature request and I haven't seen anything from the official app nor Fedilab.

It really feels like not being able to open mastodon links in an app is what's holding me back from using Mastodon more. I don't always find Mastodon content from within and is like to be able to interact with them more.

I need to release an update to refresh the supported domains soon, but I made an app that does the work of maintaining the giant list of possible domains and helps you set it as the default for all of them.

Not every client is supported, but there are a few options.

This is the best way IMO, and it supports a lot of different apps. I use both the Lemmy and Mastodon versions, and they both work nicely

Thanks. This did the trick. Any chance you'll make Lemmy redirect compatible with Voyager?

Voyager doesn't have a way to send it links.
