Is there an Android app existing that lets you both browse Kbin and browse whatever link posted in Kbin inside the same Kbin browser app? (kbin.social)

I dislike the idea of clicking a link in a Kbin app, which opens the link separately in a browser app, then closing the tab, then closing the browser app, then going back to the Kbin app.

I know it's different, but Reddit's Relay had such a function.

So far as I know, Artemis is an app for kbin. I don't k ow how it handles links tho. It may open them in the app (which I believe is what you want) or it may open them in a browser (which sounds like what you are experiencing now).

What are you using to browse kbin that opens these tabs? Vivaldi?

I haven't used kbin on my phone yet.
Only on the computer.

Just downloaded the app.
It seems that kbin is locked within. Google said something about open beta incoming.
So I cannot test the browser thing yet.

Wait, you said you don't have an app installed, and now you do? You also alluded to using your phone, my bad for not being more direct.

I still think you're better off using a browser, whether you are on mobile or computer. I'm also sorry to see nobody else chiming on since I am really out of my league here in no-app, never have used reddit land haha.

Yeah I didn't have any kbin apps in the beginning of these conversations.
I tested Artemis out at your third reply 🙂

Ya sorry, I was starting to get on over my head enough that I don't think I was keeping track of what you were saying AND what I was saying so got confused there.

So Artemis works on a computer? I didn't know that! I use Firefox on computer and Mull on mobile and haven't experienced the "symptoms" you were bringing up but also may not have as nice of an interface.

What was the open beta thing you found?
