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.

What browser are you using? I am using a Firefox fork and it basically does what you want, I don't need to specifically close the tab.

I have Vivaldi on my phone

Mull doesn't open the link in a new tab for me if you are interested in trying a different browser. Or you could try Artemis but I have no experience with that.

Artemis is also a browser?

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.
