I’m mildly annoyed with clicking on a thumbnail only to be suddenly taken to a page I know/care nothing about.

    This might be your client app, maybe…? On Jerboa, tapping a post takes me to the lemmy comments first. Opening the link is a second deliberate tap.

      Definitely this. There is a whole community dedicated to the various great Lemmy apps on different platforms, including the web. Try a couple and see if there is one that meets your needs better.

        Cool, checking this out now. I would rather not have to install anything if I can help it, I miss when all you needed for the web was a web browser.

    don’t click on the post title, but click on the little icon with number of comments… that will always take you to comment section, even when the main link leads outside of lemmy.

    In the web UI, external links have a box with an arrow, while images have a box with circles (top right of the thumbnail, grey). Clicking on the comment icon/count always takes you to the comments.

    If you are browsing on Android, you can install URLCheck app, and set it as your default browser. That will intercept all links, and allow you to inspect before launching it.
