Shouldn’t being the key word, but it’s trying to open Google Play to ‘help’ me find an app to open this ‘weird’ PDF that’s actually an HTML script. Android doesn’t give me the option to pick which app it tries to open the downloaded script with, unless I rename it to HTML, but then it just loads the script locally and the Yes/No buttons don’t even work.
Yeah its because of their download intercept, the download of the PDF doesn’t happen unless you have the cookie saved. So the link is to a PDF, but they check if you are authorized to download. You are getting an HTML because a normal desktop browser would present the choice buttons to save an approval cookie.
I’ve ultimately narrowed it down to a bug in the Jerboa for Lemmy app itself. I filed a bug report earlier to the Jerboa community, if you care to give it a read-over…
This doesn’t ask to sign into google for me. If your Browser is forcing that then install Firefox or an alternate browser than chrome.
You think I use Chrome? 😂🤣
All jokes aside, I get you, I use Fennec, a fork of Firefox.
Then you shouldn’t need to login to Google
