Is there an easy way to share a lemmy thread in a way that's instance-agnostic (they can view it on their instance even if it's different from mine) ?

Similarly, any way to quickly switch to viewing a linked post on my instance if it's linked through another?

On Lemmy it always translates a link to a post into your own instance.

!peertube@lemmy.wtf will use Lemmy.wtf for me because that’s my instance.

However, on external sites it’s an issue. Here the link it always static. You can install an addon that automatically redirects you to your own Lemmy instance. I have this on Firefox.
