The Tweet URLs stored in the file that Hoaxy generates seem link to a version of a tweet that only has the first 140 characters, instead of the new max of 280 characters. For example:
This is the link saved by Hoaxy: https://twitter.com/DonGoyoOficial/status/1151497327330365441
This is the result of that link (notice the RT at the beginning and the 3 dots at the end):

Here is the same tweet when using search:
This seems to be a compatibility mode link. If it is, then there has to be an extended mode link.
Should this link be updated to point to a tweet's full text (if possible)?
