Description

Currently you only show likes from the user's instance. It would be good to also query the origin instance for likes, so that the number of likes represents reality more closely. (SORA is doing that for example)

Research direction

Start by tracing how the iOS client currently fetches and displays likes, then read the Mastodon behavior implied by querying the origin instance and compare it with SORA. Done means likes from the origin instance are included so the displayed count better reflects the total; add or update the relevant tests if the existing code identifies them.
