Hey everyone!
Because of how Mastodon and Lemmy are spread across multiple domains, I made an app for Android to help make following shared fediverse links hopefully a bit easier.
Mastodon/Lemmy Redirect has support for most Mastodon and Lemmy instances, and lets you choose which client you want the links to open in, even if that client doesn’t support deep linking. It needs some initial setup because Android is very much not built for one app to have so many deep link domains specified, but it should be easy on Android 11 and later.
Both variants are free and open source and there’s support for a bunch of clients already. I’d love to hear your feedback on behavior/UI/new clients/whatever.
Right now, downloads are available through the GitHub releases tab. I may put the apps on the Play Store, but I don’t think they’ll be happy about all the deep link domains.
Let me know if this isn’t a good place to post this and I’ll remove it.
Looks interesting, but was a little too complex of a setup for me to figure out. This requires the installation of other 3rd party apks, and the documentation is pretty sparse about how to set them up. There’s also not many screenshots or a guide to quickly help figure out the value proposition.
I might take a look later in time when the app and ecosystem are better established!
