And when I click on that link I immediately get a popover ad for the Imgur app. The mobile web is such a mess.

Yeah you have to hold the back button in safari and choose the last page of you don’t open in a new window. I hate sites that jack your back button like that. Normally they end up blocked in my Pi-hole. Reason they do that: bad coders using cut and paste code or a framework they don’t understand and think it will help users navigate their site easier. Had a teacher go off on how this practice should be illegal like un-closable pop ups.
Did you open in a new tab per chance? Slashdot hasn't ever done that as far as I know.
God, slashdot is such a mess.
On Firefox Mobile (Android) simply nothing happens.
When that happens I long click the back button and select HN from there manually. This always seems to work.
