A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

if you click on a link to an instance iirc it opens that instance in your web browser rather than displaying it by way of your instance, allowing you to subscribe to it. It's strange
Mlem, the iOS equivalent, does the same thing. I wonder if it's a limitation of how the fediverse is structured?
I started using Lemmy/Jerboa two days ago and have been able to navigate to communities outside of my instance while staying in the app. Maybe it was a recent update?
Still does it for me, either it opens the link in browser, inside that instance (therefore cannot suscribe) or Jerboa crashes/closes. Seems like a bug.
