Open toot in browser on original instance

Open ericlathrop opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes when I view a toot the media is broken or replies are missing or the toot isn't fully realized on my instance. I'd like to open it in my browser on the original instance. I know I can share the link to my browser, but its several clicks, and I'd like a faster way.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like a menu item on the three dot menu to open the toot in the browser.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. click the three dot menu
  2. click share
  3. click share link to post
  4. click firefox

Sounds reasonable. The 3.x releases are the ones currently on the roadmap (https://github.com/orgs/pachli/projects/1) to better handle fetching content from other servers / through the browser, so I've labelled it with that (I'm working on stuff related to translation at the moment).

Simpler workaround in the meantime.

  1. Tap post in TL to see local view (in context)
  2. From 3 dot menu in upper right, select "open in browser" to see that same post (in context) at the original instance

Is your feature request to save a click by adding the latter menu option to the per-post three dot menu in the TL view?

I'd like to be able to see all the replies to a post without having to open it in browser. Fedilab seems to be able to fetch the replies from the original instance when prompted.
