    I finally figured it out, it’s apparently a bug in the Jerboa for Lemmy app when I try tapping the link posted in Jerboa. Jerboa sees PDF, Jerboa blindly tries to open it as PDF. When I copy the link and paste it into Fennec directly, the link and age verification script works as expected.

    So the only thing I was doing ‘wrong’ was by tapping the link in Jerboa, like why would I expect the simple act of tapping a link is somehow messed up in Jerboa…?

    Anyways, thanks for all the ‘help’, accusing me of being a liar and all. I sure hope you and others accusing me of lying never get into tech support, nothing will ever get fixed or solved that way.

      Yeah, I would never in a million years have guessed that and I could never be in customer service. And if I were you, I would definitely use a different app after that experience – pretty insane bug if you ask me. Sorry I called you a liar.

        Well now that I finally scratched my noodle long enough and figured out the copy/paste workaround, I’ve posted a bug report to the Jerboa community with the link provided here, and sure enough the bug easily reproduces on that post too, so hopefully they can look into it sometime soon.
