Redirect brand new user to originating article after going through onboarding

Is this feature related to a problem? Please describe.

As a logged-out visitor who hits a "registration" CTA while attempting to take an action (reaction, comment, etc.) from an article page, it's currently too easy for me to get "lost" once I go through onboarding.

Describe the solution you’d like

When a brand new user hits a registration CTA from an article page (or a billboard on that article page), they should be redirected to the originating article page after going through /onboarding.

Definition of Done

  • Implement the logic to keep track of the originating article page as the new user starts the /onboarding process
  • Upon completion of the onboarding process, redirect the new user back to the originating article page
