How to make a <Link /> show the fallback page immediately while it's building with getStaticProps?

[danielcolinjames]

I thought that's how fallback: true would work, but it appears to only work if you land on that page as a new request, rather than navigating to it from another page.

Would it be possible to have Next show the fallback: true version of the page when navigating to it with a <Link />? Or is there another way to accomplish this functionality? I just want all the benefits of getStaticProps / getStaticPaths while still allowing users to see a skeleton loading screen instead of no visual feedback for several seconds when clicking to a new page that uses a dynamic route.

I found a few people with the same issue, and it sounds like something that would be really awesome if it could be built into Next somehow: #13751 (comment)

Would love to hear anyone's thoughts on this!
