Currently, when using the user switcher by long-pressing the profile icon, you will be taken to the home feed after a switch.

Can an option be added to try to stay in the same location (community or post) after switching users? Though, I see the profile switcher is not currently available when viewing a post.

Use case: I have an account I use for most things, and an alt account I use for NSFW. It would be nice to be able to quickly swap over to the NSFW account after discovering a new community or seeing something I'd like to bookmark, without having to remember where it is/search for the content again after switching accounts.

Yes, that would be a concern, which is why I'd prefer this to be an option, ideally defaulted to the current behavior. That way, if someone wants to be sure their alt acct doesn't potentially leak to instance admins, they can leave the feature off.
