for anyone using Mull on Android, since i'm using it that the webview i see in apps like Feeder seems to be using Mull, although when checking the implementation in Dev Options, it does look (from logo and name lol) like normal Chromium webview

screenshot of Feeder app showing Mull context window

what's really going on here, and how could i have properly checked it myself?

EDIT: vain attempts at posting inline image instead of link to hoster

EDIT2: thanks to noodlejetski@lemm.ee with the image thing (dumb me thought [] was that rectangle character you get in some fields where that character is not recognized ಠᴗಠ )

    Android browsers can provide what are called "Custom Tab Intents", meaning that other apps can request to open web pages in a webview-like custom tab. This depends on browser support, with WebView being the fallback when your default browser does not support it.

      so, in this case, "Powered by Mull" shows this is a Mull custom tab and not a webview window which Gecko doesn't support?

      if so, i'm still happy with that
