PieFed posts viewed from Mastodon don't show full text anymore (cake.kobel.fyi)

Hi there,

before, PieFed posts when viewed from Mastodon showed the whole text of the post including formatting. They felt native on the microblogging side of things, as if they were Mastodon posts.

Now they just show the title and a link that opens the post on PieFed. That hinders interactions, because I have to leave Mastodon to read the post and then return to it afterwards to interact with it.

Can I somehow change the output format back to full text when posting? And/or why was this changed?

It has been different from instance to instance at least for a while. I think maybe it's a local setting in Mastodon on how to handle long form content.
