Pleroma v2.0.0[1] lets you hover over the "Reply to" text to get the replied to status in a little popup (which might be new in v2.) But also a little "popout" icon that will open the entire thread in another window (which previously existed pre-v2.)

[1] running as essentially a single-user instance.

I'm running Pleroma in the same use case, it works fine for me I think.

If other people want to do that and switch from Twitter -> Fediverse, I wrote a bunch of scripts to switch from Twitter to Fediverse :

https://git.sr.ht/~pierrenn/twitter_escape

Sadly, this is a bit spammy method, but I had only a dozen or so complaints so far and my "Whole known network" is now seeded pretty well : https://s.pnn.sh/ (this is a small single user home instance on ARM, so it's slow)

And TBH I find the Pleroma UI better than Mastodon for the single user instance - plus clicking on the date to get replies in the Mastodon frontend always feels weird (but it's personal taste !)

I'm currently trying to get my head around wrapping Pleroma in Docker, as I've everything dockerized and behind a Traefik proxy.

Thanks for the links!
