When I click a federated link my web browser goes to the other site. How can I view it from kbin? (kbin.social)

Basically the title. I want to click the link to a lemmy site or whatever and it shows up within kbin.

The link needs to be an @. @technology @lemmy.world (no space) to make it work

Annoying that it has to be based on how the other user writes it. Hopefully an app can keep everything "in universe" to kbin

kbin link is a browser extension that fixes the links.

Fuck that's dope but I use Samsung Internet on my phone. They seem to have good privacy features. Maybe I should try Mozilla again?

I think firefox on phones doesn't really support extensions unfortunately.

It does. Not all of them, tho.

uBlock Origin can be installed as an addon on mobile, for example

With a little poking around you can install any add-on on Firefox Nightly mobile. Not all of them are guaranteed to work, but it's a lot more than what Mozilla officially allows
