Yeah, actually it's on purpose, with this known downside. For link posts in our forums, we put the link in the post's url field, the same way Lemmy does. We did this as a compromise, because otherwise NodeBB wouldn't show the link. The side effect is that Mastodon-style apps treat url as the post's own address. "Open original page" then opens the link instead of the post on the Catodon server.

@julian@activitypub.space - hello! I have not checked if NodeBB has changed this since we implemented federated forums. if we send url as a list, with the post's own address first and the link second, would NodeBB still show the link? We also send the link as a Link attachment. Ideally, we would like to keep NodeBB working and fix Mastodon too.

@panos @catodon-talks @julian wait, that can't be right. Lemmy does not do that, it doesn't have the top-level url in post AP object at all, neither I ever had this issue with Lemmy linkposts and I can't reproduce it now, it's original post url resolves correctly, even on Mastodon.
And NodeBB source at least gives the impression that it can pull the href from attachments?

You're right, and I got Lemmy wrong (we had matched Lemmy's behaviour in an earlier commit). Lemmy doesn't send a top-level url for link posts, only a Link attachment. We do send the link as url as well. I added that in April for NodeBB, but it looks unnecessary and it breaks "open original" on Mastodon. I'll remove it and check that NodeBB still shows the link from the attachment. Thanks for the pointer.
