[AP->AT] An (opt-in?) way to just link to the AP post when summary exists

[saschanaz]

(Kinda sorta related to my previous issue #1898)

This time it's about writing a spoiler. Normally one would do something like:

summary: Black Mirror spoiler
content: (whatever about the storyline)

But this would translate to:

[Black Mirror spoiler]

(whatever about the storyline)

Which does not require any extra click to open it. I find it impossible to write a "safe" spoiler with bridgy turned on, so I hope there could be some opt-in way to link to the original AP post, so that it would at least require an extra click as expected by the poster.

Good feature request! Similar to #831.

One way I often think about this kind of thing is, bridging is a lossy approximation. It can get close to parity, but it's never perfect. Different networks do have commonalities - profiles, posts, replies, likes, reposts, blocks, etc - but they also obviously have differences. User-provided CWs and folding aren't unique to the fediverse, but they're definitely not universal, eg on Bluesky. I tend to focus on bridging the common features well, more than trying to reproduce features like this that don't have a clear corollary.

Regardless, it is a good idea, happy to track it here as a feature request!
