Pitch

Basically go back to the old behaviour where the big link at the bottom would (if opened in a new tab) take you to the post as it appears on that post's own instance.

IIRC glitch still keeps this behaviour.

Motivation

Seriously, there's no point in having multiple tootdeck tabs open like that.

Virtually every single time I've clicked on one of those links, it was for the purpose of viewing something that might not have federated to the instance my account was on - usually because nobody on that instance was following certain replyers yet.

What I'm asking for was the old behaviour in previous versions of Mastodon and I don't see why this had to be changed except to make everything harder and more confusing for everyone.
