Yeah, turn on in your app settings! I saw this too the other day and it works now.
A setting to open links to lemmy communities or posts in the app? I don't see that in jerboa. How would it even know that a link points to a lemmy instance anyway?
If you're on Android Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Opening Links > Jerboa > Tick all the boxes
I see now, that's not a great solution since it will only work for the whitelisted sites. I've seen talk of mastodon adopting a custom url scheme (https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/2291). Maybe lemmy should consider something like that too.
Edit: also, checking those settings messed up opening images, when you click on an image, it takes you back to the main screen in the app.
