What is this called? A banglink?
Anyway, I want to banglink a post.
I know I can banglink a community: !environment@aussie.zone
But what about for this post?
https://aussie.zone/post/132034
I tried several different ways but none worked:
!aussie.zone/post/132034
!aussie.zone/c/environment/post/132034
!environment@aussie.zone/post/132034
!environment/post/132034@aussie.zone
Interesting.
I guess this is not supported even on Lemmy’s server side. Actually, it kind of makes sense, because to get such a link, your home instance would need to have discovered the target community, which is not always the case.
As a workaround (works, but tedious), you have to open the target community in your home instance, find the post, and then you get the link. I guess that it could be automated somehow later on.
