Triage Notes

Category: Bug Report

Summary: From the Posts page, clicking the button that opens the original source URL causes the app to crash instead of opening the web browser.

What I established:

• This is a reproducible crash, not a one-off.
• The expected behavior is clear: tapping the button should launch the system browser at the post's URL.
• Root cause cannot be confirmed from the report alone; URL launching can fail in different ways per platform (e.g., missing/incorrect URL scheme handling, uncaught exception in the navigation/launcher call, or a platform-specific capability issue).

To make this actionable, could you provide:

1. Which platform(s) the crash occurs on (Android / iOS / Windows / Mac)?
2. Steps to reproduce (exact button/location on the Posts page).
3. Any stack trace or logs from the crash (device logs, or the exception message).
4. Whether all URLs crash, or only certain ones (e.g., non-http(s) links).
5. App version and whether the crash reproduces on emulator, device, or both.

Once we have this, the crash can be investigated and fixed deterministically.

1. Android
2. It's the first button on any post line. It works in the website version but crashes in the android MAUI app. the button is this one <FluentButton OnClick="@(async () => await OpenUrlInNewWindow(context!.Url))" IconEnd="@(new Icons.Regular.Size20.Open())" />
3. no
4. all ULRs I don't think the url is the problem
5. latest

Agent Brief

Category: Bug

Summary: On Android, tapping the button that opens the original source URL from the Posts page crashes the app instead of launching the web browser.

Current Behavior:

• Tapping the open-link button on a post line in the Posts page crashes the app on Android.
• The same action works in the website version.

Desired Behavior:

• Tapping the open-link button opens the post's URL in the Android system browser without crashing.

Reporter-Provided Details:

• Platform: Android (MAUI app).
• App version: latest.
• Affects all URLs, not URL-specific.
• Triggered from the first button on any post line, which invokes the open-URL action for that post's URL.

Key Interfaces:

• The open-link action handler used from the Posts page that opens a URL in a new window/browser.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Tapping the open-link button on any post opens its URL in the Android system browser without crashing.
• Works for any URL.
• No regression on other platforms or the website version.

Out of Scope:

• Changes to URL-handling semantics or the web version.
• Other unrelated reader/app crashes.
