I know I can preview images and videos, but to read a news article I have to open the thread first then click the link to the article.

Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried searching "open link" but kbin search the whole fediverse instead of this magazine.

Not at this point. What might be helpful is if when a link is used in a post title it generate a link to click on beside the title, so someone can choose which they'd rather visit.

Thanks. A little weird though. To me it looks like it should be the main priority before every other feature. But may be it's because I came from reddit where its main purpose is a link aggregator.

To add to this, on mobile I'm surprised I have to click the small difficult to click image symbol rather than the thumbnail to view any images posted. Coming from Rif, this has been hard to get used to.

Thumbnails could be used to provide links to external sites too whereas the title could link to the comment thread, no?

I have also been confused. But I remember that I was confused about how reddit worked at first.
