OK so the problem seems to be Jerboa doesn’t automatically set itself as the default app to open some/all lemmy links so if you are on android please try going to your “android settings / apps / default apps / opening links / jerboa” and approve all the instances you want jerboa to open links for. Which in this particular case is sh itjust works and that solved the problem for me as well!

edit Well that just breaks image links on the front page for me now so I don’t know anymore. Sorry about the confusion.
