I actually did some [work earlier in the year](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ff96d541e955edb094aa4dc639978bf7ad2f0fc3) to fullscreen code blocks. First, you have to have the `show_copy_button_on_codeblocks` setting enabled. Then, any code block that has a horizontal scroll will have 2 buttons – the copy button and the fullscreen button (the copy button will be there regardless):

Then a modal will be shown without the horizontal scrolling:
