it should show anyone who clicks it the POV from their own instance which is why the login doesn't get shown
i'm not sure how it's implemented, whether uris in a specific format are rewritten by the client, all i know is i haven't had any problems since i started using it
if someone does post a link that takes me to a different instance, rather than logging in again, i just copy the whole uri to the search box on my instance, it's a lot quicker

@petersterne@mastodon.social @fields@hachyderm.io @markloundy@mastodon.online @digitalbits@universeodon.com i do agree it can be confusing and is clunky, a global translation system that would keep you in your instance unless you specifically asked to view on the remote (there are reasons to do this sometimes) would be very helpful

@meganox@mas.to @fields@hachyderm.io @markloundy@mastodon.online @digitalbits@universeodon.com Interesting, though it doesn’t seem to be working on mobile web (or any of the mobile apps) for me.
