I use an android phone (pixel 6a) and my default web browser is Chrome.

When I browse Lemmy through the web app, my chrome history starts to look like the attached picture, with 100s of entries over the past week or so. If I click on any of them it just brings me to my lemmy homepage.

Anyone have a solution for this? Preferably for nothing to show up in the history (similar to browsing in incognito mode), or alternatively for the history to actually reflect the posts that I clicked into?

Or is this the intended behaviour?

    This behavior also exists on Opera. I think this is just an inherit feature of being a PWA. It’s still using a browser, whichever one you were using when you clicked “install”. My only suggestion to avoid this is to use a different different browser dedicated to Lemmy that you don’t use for anything else.
