Does Lemmy have a way to link to a post that anyone can use?
I can click the links up there, but it takes me to sh.itjust.works and that's not where I am in the Fediverse, so when I get there I'm no longer logged in.
And if so, can we have it so "wrong" links are corrected into the right format?
No way to do this I don't think, but you can paste the link into the search bar and that shows you the post on your instance so you can interact with it.
It's a bit janky but it works.
That didn't work for me. Possibly not "on" my instance, if that's how any of this works...
It does look like others have noticed it as well though.

Did you copy the link text and not link address, and put that in the search bar of your instance?
Yeah, it got two results and one was a link to this post. I must have clicked on the same one twice, because the other is the actual link I was after. 🤷♂️
