Or maybe it is only me?
When I’m clicking a link to a community on the instance I’m logged into (Lemmy.world), the community opens in my web browser rather than in jerboa. Given, this is annoying especially when I want to subscribe to that community.
I should note that I’m using a url checker app so this might be the reason for such behavior.
Substitute ‘in-app browser’ for ‘service’ in your sentence and it says essentially the same thing as what my sentence did.
So yeah, not nonsense - totally sensible.
