Until this week, when I clicked on a tweet, it would open in a new browser window, or tab. It was simple to copy the url of the tweet and paste it here.
In the last few days, clicking on a tweet opens the Twitter app on my Mac.
So, two questions:
- Is it possible to make Twitter open the link in a browser, and if so, how?
- If #1 is impossible, where's the link for the tweet in the Twitter Web App so it can be copied?

I don’t know if 1 is possible without uninstalling the twitter app, I don’t like to use the app on my Mac anyway.
#2 is easy. If you click on this (on the bottom of the tweet):
You get this:

You are not talking about the behavior of this forum but more generally how your browser deals with Twitter links, right?
