As reported to the lemmy devs here there is no sanity checking of links in posts currently in lemmy. Please be careful in the links you click!

    I really wish jerboa could show urls on links for this reason. Are there any other Android clients that do?

        It does in card and full width view, just not in list or reverse list view based on my testing just now.

        Edit: It shows the domain at least. Jerboa does too in every view in 0.0.38 as far as I can tell.

      I’m sad that the RIF dev is making a Tildes app next, because the RIF UX around links was absolutely spectacular.

        Good enough! I’ll switch to Liftoff today

        EDIT: Liftoff isn’t showing any website/url previews for the links in the post or comment text but it’s working for primary URLs of posts so it’s better than nothing lol

        EDIT2: Actually Liftoff doesn’t do anything more than Jerboa already does. It seems Boost can show URLs before opening a link but it is closed source.
