This link drove me nuts last night, until I stopped tapping the link in Jerboa and instead copy/pasted the link directly into Fennec web browser.

If this bug has been resolved in a newer version of Jerboa, well just let me know and I’ll make a point to update later.

    Jerboa doesn’t handle PDF URIs directly. It only handles links related to Lemmy. It offloads that responsibility to your browser. It could have something to do with your android settings.

    For more context, here is the file that has the functions that handles link opening in the github source code: https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa/blob/main/app/src/main/java/com/jerboa/Utils.kt

    The functions of interest are openLink and openLinkRaw.

      Nope, it’s not even that. My browser (Fennec) is configured to ask every time what app to use, but Jerboa triggering my default browser apparently bypasses that altogether and I never get any option as to which app to load the link/document with.

      Other apps don’t do this, other apps give me the option of which app to open stuff with. Jerboa however just blindly goes forward, assuming it sees a PDF, it must be a PDF…
