LinkPizza 12/20/20 3:54:43 AM #9:	Joe_Biden posted... ...it would just open whatever the app is a fire tablet is just android, side loaded apps would work how they always work Idk. All I know is some apps work differently than my phone. Like on my phone, discord just opens up as discord. It doesn't go to safari and open it up. Same with reddit. And when I am on safari, it tries to get me to use the reddit app. And I don't even see reddit. But some kind of reddit sync app or something. So, I don't know how that works. But looks different from the reddit app on my phone. I also think imgur is different. That being said, that's from the kindle app store... So, maybe it's different from the Google play store or whatever... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
