Inconsistent action result upon clicking Repost icon #328

Issue

These two different behaviors with a component looking the same way are inconsistent and make it hard to build habits around reposting or seeing who's interacting with you.

Expected behavior suggestion

The thing is we have a different UI for focused post (like on their own URL) and posts in a feed. We have that extra line with more accurate counters of reactions and boosts. Those "new" counters are clickable to get details on who reacted or boosted.

If we want to have the option to see who reacted / boosted on each post of the feeds, we should have that extra line on every posts. Which would overload the timelines.

If we were mobile only i would go for something like "tap" → reacts / boosts "long press" → see details on who reacted / boosted

But i'm not sure how to deal with this on desktop.. Ctrl + Click ? not that intuitive. Maybe we could have the icon+label which would trigger the action to react/boost and the number which would display the details? But the click zone might end up pretty small even on desktop.
