Is there an easy way to share a lemmy thread in a way that’s instance-agnostic (they can view it on their instance even if it’s different from mine) ?
Similarly, any way to quickly switch to viewing a linked post on my instance if it’s linked through another?

You’re probably looking for https://lemmyverse.link/
Oh this is nice. Thanks for sharing!
Is there a way this kind of thing could be worked into lemmy as a feature?
It is part of the Lemmy 1.0 release
Oh, that’s really cool! Thanks

Paste the post URL in your instance search bar.
Ah, I see. Thanks!
You’re welcome. It’s a bit finicky to be honest 😄
Considering what brought me here, I’ll take finicky over maliciously designed any day. :)
Sounds good, welcome by the way!
It’s not instance agnostic because the thread lives on the instance of the author. But links in this format: https://lemm.ee/post/57428587 can be put in the search field on any instance and will return the proper post.
cooooool mbin automatically formats it to a local link:
must be new in v1.80Yes, it’s a great feature
Oh great!
That’s cool indeed! If it doesn’t get in the way with too many links in a post
And smart clients/UIs like tesseract realise that the link is to a remote lemmy instance, and then give you the option of viewing it remotely or from your own instances perspective
There is a website that will redirect to the post on your instance but it looks like I did not bookmark it. I expect someone else will chime in with it.
