Not sure how complex this might be to implement, but it might be good to look into fixing the issue of:

If I'm logged into say piefed.social and I see a link on another forum to a post on piefed.ca, when I click on it I'm not logged in, and then I can't upvote or comment.

Meaning I need to go to piefed.social and search for that post if I want to interact with it, which is a lot of friction.

Perhaps if you go to a piefed.ca post it can look at your cookies to check if you're already logged into another piefed instance, and then redirect & open the post through the instance you're logged into.

Or have a big redirect button that offers to redirect you to the post you're looking at but in the instance you're logged into.

Not yet, but I've been seeing them more and more on reddit, and then I land on a instance I'm not logged into, and then it's a pain in the A$$ to interact with the post.

https://threadiverse.link/ is supposed to help with that, but not sure how much it supports Piefed
