I have an account on the feddit.nl Lemmy instance. It'd be great if links to posts and comments on this instance open in Summit.

I'm in software development, but not Android/mobile app development.

Just for my understanding, and then I'll stop bothering you on this, I promise. Larger instances like lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, and some of the (probably) smaller ones like feddit.de and feddit.it are supported. At least I can select those in the "Open by default" dialog. So for those instances you did work with the instance admins to get those to work? So it's more than just adding those domains to the AndroidManifest.xml file?

If you are curious, you can see the app link behavior documented here: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links#web-links

It's not bothersome to answer these so feel free to ask me anything.

The restrictions to link handling is only added in Android 12 and above. I added link handling for the other instances initially but because this feature is essentially getting phased out by Android I have not been updating the list.
