Strange. 1.6 million clicks on Feedly; 5 points / 3 comments on HN.

What do you mean? I have the latest Gmail app, non-Chrome default browser and it works as intended. What's the issue again?

Oh shit, after the upgrade to Android 6 on my OnePlus the default browser is not there anymore. My fault, sorry Google, at least for now.
