Comment on Chrome not proceeding with Web Integrity API deemed by many to be DRM

No, I’m not talking about default browser but the WebView app. For example I’m using Voyager for Lemmy, and if I click on this post’s link it will open the website in the WebView, then I can click to Open with firefox.

But WebView itself is still chrome as you can see

You must be on stock android. I think you can still swap out the webview component but I forgot how

You can customize Voyager to open links in default browser not in-app: Settings -> General -> Open Links in

  Weird, I can’t see this option

    It’s only available if you are using the native app. The PWA doesn’t have that option due to web limitations unfortunately.

Ohhhh I see. Yeah, I think Sync uses Chrome too. Sync has an option to always open links in external web browser, so that’s how I got around that.

It’s even crazier than that. On some versions of Android there is no webview, only chrome! I think that was around Android 8 or so they dropped webview then re-added webview in the next version
