We really need to figure out this linking issue with the fediverse. I don't know who is managing the site but it would be nice to be able to produce relative links. For example if OP linked to
https://sub.rehab/?follow=kbin.social&separator=m
it should be enough to make the links relative to kbin on the pageRelated to this, Lemmy and kbin need to add a way to easily open posts in a different instance.
Far too many times I click on link only to find it's a post on a separate instance, and have to manually search for it on mine.
They need to both start adding referrer parameters to their share links. If hitting share appends
/fedirate?follow=kbin.social&separator=m
to the link, both lemmy and kbin should be smart enough to replace those values when you view a comment or a post so that it stays on your instance. In the worst case the link still works and the values are just ignored.I like that idea. Adding to the to do list :)
