Description

Hi, I seem to have run into a bug when sharing posts to the Holos app. When sharing a link of a post on an external instance to Holos, instead of bringing me to the post within the app, it fetches the contents of the external post and places them in the create post menu.

Steps to Reproduce

Open a link to a post in a browser (e.g. https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115604090796158451
Click share, and choose Holos from the list of apps
Holos opens a menu to compose a new post containing the text of the post that was shared.

Expected Behavior

A) Holos opens the post itself, or B) Holos opens a compose post menu containing only the link & page title that was shared to it.

Actual Behavior

Holos opens a menu to compose a new post containing the text of the post that was shared.
