Is there any #ActivityPub / #Mastodon URI scheme used in the wild that would allow me to open an ActivityPub account directly in my Android app?

I've seen 'acct' and 'web+ap' mentioned but none seem to be implemented.

The goal is that given a text of "Here is my Mastodon profile acct:daniel@gultsch.social" #Conversations_im can link that directly into #Tusky. (Just like mailto and xmpp URIs open my E-Mail or IM app respectively)

Have @apps or @Tusky considered that? If not why not?

It's been a while since I thought about it. But i recall one of the concerns I had was to include the full activitypub ID in the web+ scheme, because it's not actually guaranteed that the resource will be hosted on https servers. It's entirely possible to federate over other schemes. I know there are telnet AP servers, for instance.
