TLDR; The Android app doesn't support reblog deep links.
Intercepted deep link format:

After investigation, it has become evident that the Android app currently lacks support for reblog deep links. Instead, incoming links are being interpreted as Edit Post Links. Consequently, the app attempts to open the post for editing. When the site is not found or its host does not match the host in the URL, we display the message "An error occurred when accessing this blog." and open a blank editor. This aligns with the intended behavior.
FYI: @tiagomar - I will relabel to remove the bug and pri high labels.
Thanks for reporting! 👍
