For lemmy, the links are already crafted the ‘right way’. It’s what I was testing for when I made the video I linked to (the instance I was on was brand new, so it had never heard of the community link I clicked on, but it still worked).
I don’t think crafting all links to point to a search endpoint is the correct solution. It’ll do what’s required for mbin, but I suspect the vast majority of users are on lemmy. For them, it’s an extra step to get where they want, from a page that’s either filled with extraneous info (every time TIL has been mentioned for your link) or will say ‘no results’ until the backend has completed its tasks.
my point was, it used to be required for lemmy or youd get a 404
Oh, well, I don’t know when lemmy changed then (and presumably diverged from mbin) - this community’s been running and using the same link format for about 7 months.
my hope is that this isnt a ‘new lemmy-only communites’ post and that its about ‘new fediverse communities’ posting
and that means non-lemmy specific actions that allow anyone in a remote instance to subscribe or view it directly. the search function covers that.
if you want to keep lemmy a tight nit, closed off area, then yeah, these links work great prolly.
Fediverse communities don’t really exist - lemmy has communities, and other apps have things that are similar in some ways but not in others (e.g. mastodon groups, peertube channels, and mbin magazines). There’s lots of little differences that limit full interoperability, meaning that lemmy doesn’t have as much connection with the wider Fediverse as perhaps it should. This is more a subject best addressed by app developers than me. I can’t solve problems like that with a list of links.
In other areas, I’ve done what I can - I made a virtual lemmy community that natively features posts from mastodon accounts that haven’t even heard of lemmy. Pretty cool, I thought, but no-one gives a fuck. So I resent the idea that lemmy being closed-off in any way is something I’m indifferent to.
I just clicked the ‘search’ link I just made from lemmy.world, btw. The link to the actual community is 4th from the top, buried between cross-posts and mentions. Moreover, the likelihood that ‘search’ post work on every lemmy app is pretty low. Right now, these list work on any of the multitude of front-ends or mobile apps you can get for lemmy, which is a minor triumph in and of itself. Changing them to work for mbin would just break something else. Even if it didn’t, they’d work on lemmy and mbin, and then they’d be some new app (who haven’t hard-coded search in the same place) that they wouldn’t work for, and we’d be back at square one.
i just want it all to work together. the less server specific actions, the better the 'verse.
im glad youre on the same page.
I suspect that ActivityPub is too broad and too permissive for that. For every post on lemmy, it already sends out two different activities - one for lemmy, one intended for mastodon. On lemmy, a new post is a ‘Page’, on mastodon it’s a ‘Note’, on PeerTube it’s a ‘Video’. Lemmy understands all 3 (more or less), but my feeling is that if Fediverse apps are inter-acting well together, it’s largely because someone hacked it.
The thing the Fediverse most reminds me of is DLNA (aka uPnP Video) - it’s supposed to be universal, but if you ever saw the config for a DLNA server, you’d see it had to do different things for every different brand of client.
we had a pretty good thing going with the search links. but i get it, its a bridge too far for this group
e. how about just including the full url if we want to go full interop
