If there’s a link in a thread that’s not to a .zip community, how can you get there so you can interact with it through your account? (I’ll put an example in the post)

    There’s a third-party tool you can usually use: https://lemmyverse.link/

    So pop the url of the post on the home instance in, and you get https://lemmyverse.link/sh.itjust.works/post/31943808

    Once you’ve set your home instance, it will divert you to the home instance’s post.

    Unfortunately there isnt a way that i know of that lets you do it in lemmy. I think adopting sharing links via lemmyverse.link is the way forwards at the moment.

    It doesn’t work with frontends sadly though :(
