I made a deep linking proxy for Mastodon and Lemmy (github.com)

Hey everyone!

Because of how Mastodon and Lemmy are spread across multiple domains, I made an app for Android to help make following shared fediverse links hopefully a bit easier.

Mastodon/Lemmy Redirect has support for most Mastodon and Lemmy instances, and lets you choose which client you want the links to open in, even if that client doesn't support deep linking. It needs some initial setup because Android is very much not built for one app to have so many deep link domains specified, but it should be easy on Android 11 and later.

Both variants are free and open source and there's support for a bunch of clients already. I'd love to hear your feedback on behavior/UI/new clients/whatever.

Right now, downloads are available through the GitHub releases tab. I may put the apps on the Play Store, but I don't think they'll be happy about all the deep link domains.

Let me know if this isn't a good place to post this and I'll remove it.

Last I checked the lemmy redirect did not work with sync. Are you planning to implement that in the future?

Sync can't handle deep links yet. You can select it, but Sync will just throw a "TODO" toast.
