It shows the post he’s referring to, and it shows Voyager branding since he used the apps share option instead of sending the original link. At the bottom of the page there’s a link to the full context. I’m not a fan of Voyager for doing this.
While yes there is a link to the original content, clicking it does not let me view it within my own app of choice. So not only is it an ad, but it forces you to view anything shared on web or voyager.
I have Sync for Lemmy simply because that’s what I used before coming to Lemmy. However, I’d say just make sure you copy the original link (to lemmy.world for example) instead of the voyager link, should be easy enough
What did he steal?

wtf, why does clicking on the link give me an ad for voyager?

Huh, voyager did not use to do that., I think
I’m not a fan of that either.
What alternatives do you recommend?
If on iOS I recommend Mlem.

I’m looking into switching to Raccoon, which someone recommended
Thunder is what I usually use.
Raccoon isn’t bad either.
Thanks! I downloaded Raccoon and will try it out soon
Nice. Hope it works for you.
It’s a setting that can be changed. Sucks that that’s the default, but Voyager can send original links too.
