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:

[News](/c/[email protected])

News

[My User](/u/[email protected])

My User

You’re welcome!

    Do you know if there is an equivalent for linking posts and comments? Haven’t found a solution for those yet.

      No, I don’t think there is a way currently, the best solution is just to link it on the instance you are on, don’t think there is a way to do it across instances
