Mention link on profile screen

[myConsciousness]

Describe the bug

There has been a minor bug in the profile screen for some time.

For example, if you press the Profile menu from the web and go to the Profile screen, the Mention link in the description set in the profile is functional as shown in the following image.

But if you come from a link that was mentions in someone's post, the link is not set in the mentions as shown below.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Web

1. Set up a Mention link in the Profile description
2. Go to your profile screen from a post where someone mentions you

Mobile

1. Set up a Mention link in the Profile description
2. Go to your profile screen from a post where someone mentions you
3. Or swipe to update on your profile screen

Expected behavior

In any case, the Mention link in the profile description should be working.

Details

• App version:
  • 1.47.0

Additional context

I haven't checked the code, but it may be that the process of setting the link to the mentions is not working depending on the route taken to the profile screen.

seems to be a dupe of #1223 (comment)
both this and the linked issue talks about mentions not being properly linked inside profile bios, if it pertains to the store not getting updated correctly, then both are talking about the same issue

I read the Issue you shared, and I'm not sure if it's the same cause. But I imagine it's simply that the process of setting up the Mention link is missing only for certain routes.

Yeah this is a dupe issue. You're right that something seems to cause it depending on the route taken to show the profile; I haven't been able to isolate the cause yet.
