I'm not sure what exactly your flow was here. Did you come from a specific feed? In that case the back button (ALT+Left) should work(?)

We will probably make the title of the feed within the post a link to the feed though. We can't have people getting lost like that. :)

I added the feed, clicked on a post, got stuck. From what I get, falling into it from the main combined feed has the same behavior.

Pressing back button in browser is, of course, the last resort.

You are right, it has the same behavior. It's the same exact page (displaying the content of a post), and it has no logic in it around where you came from.

Personally the back button is the first resort, unless I opened it in a new tab, in which case ctrl-w brings me back. I always assumed others felt the same, but good to learn that not everyone feels that way.
