I know I can link communities in other instances by typing, for example, [email protected] instead of https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] , and the link will open in the correct instance for anyone, even people not using lemmy.world.
Is there a way to do the same with posts? For example, this post has a URL of https://lemmy.world/post/1421688, but is there a way to format this so it would link to the correct post for someone on any instance, and not just lemmy.world?

Not at the moment but there is an open bug report for this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3259
Thanks. Longer-term it might be nice to see links to both communities and posts get auto-replaced with instance-agnostic versions - with some sort of escape to skip that behavior. I’ve already seen a bot going around detecting when instances are improperly linked.
