Whenever I attempt to open a link from a post (by selecting 'Open link' on the pop-up window), the button does not seem to do anything. I have tried switching the setting 'Open links in external browser' on and off, however I get the same behaviour regardless of setting.

Is anyone else having this issue? And if so, any workarounds? Thanks!

Go to android settings and check if a default browser is set.

Just double checked and yep a default browser is definitely set.

I just also tested again with 2 different default browsers (Samsung Browser and Firefox) with same results.

Weird. Setting a default browser fixed it for me. The latest version of summit is 1.83.2. Maybe try updating?

My version is showing latest on Play Store, and F-Droid is showing latest as 1.82.7. Where is everyone getting these newer updates from?

I might try and uninstall the Play Store install and go with the F-Droid one instead, see if that solves my issue

EDIT: Reinstalling with the F-Droid version 1.82.7 has solved my issue. I'll leave this post up incase someone else runs into the same problem. Hopefully one of our solutions solves it

I got it from obtainium (github). You can edit the title and put [solved] at the start. Then everyone will know.
