Steps to reproduce

Click on a link in the chat

Outcome

What did you expect?

Link opens in external browser

What happened instead?

Link opens in some sort of in-app web view. This is okayyyyy (if ugly), but the real problem is that there is no way to keep the web view open if I want to go back to chatting.

I am getting into the habit of always clicking on an hamburger menu to open the full browser but it's an extra step for basically every link I tap on.
