AFAIK Instagram was always like this? Whenever I get stopped I just hit the back button and thank for them saving me time. TikTok does it right - it annoys you with a pop up to login/open in app...you can dismiss it and watch the video. I believe if you want to do more than that it'll annoy you again - but I usually go back to what I was doing before (responding to someone who sent me that...)
