I hate that you can't link to a Mastodon post without it taking you a different server. It's nuts that those links aren't swizzed on the sever. Always taking me to a different server that I'm not logged into is the Achilles heal of Mastodon. Non-tech users are completely confused by this. It's not their fault, it's Mastodon's fault. I know it's not easy to fix, but if Mastodon wanted to fix one thing keep new users, this is it.

@grumpygamer It is confusing at first, but if you want to reply it "takes you home" after you enter your instance url. I agree this could be done better / automated, but after the first few times you get used to it.

People just expect Mastodon to work like a central service, like twitter, and it isn't. UX can be done better, but people should also just be open to the fact that it behaves differently.
