You're awesome man! This is direly needed. I'm just wondering how on earth to publicize this before the madness that hits on Monday.

Any chance you could find a place to fit this in the join lemmy site and do a pull request before then? I know it's a lot to ask, but it would be huge.

Maybe you could bring it up with the Kbin devs? I'm sure it wouldn't be too crazily difficult to have it work similarly over there. Just need to swap /c/ out for a /m/. Probably similar needed over here to translate /m/ to /c/ too.

 

Hi all!

So, I'm assuming everyone has seen links like https://beehaw.org/c/news and clicked through to find it doesn't work right because it's a different site (I'm assuming a different instance here).

Well, I just stumbled across an interesting feature: if you enter a link in the following format, it works for everyone regardless of instance of origin:

You're welcome!

All of the more fediverse-focused ones (fedditors, fedinauts, feddies, fedizens, etc) are definitely better. Lemmy is bigger than just Lemmy: we have users from Mastodon, Kbin and more seeing and replying to our posts. Let's choose a name that reflects that :)

Also, just to prove a point, if you're here from anywhere not Lemmy, say hello!

Nope, none at all. A signed off user is one that's not causing server load :P
