So I know about /c/community@example.host for communities and /u/user@example.host for users, but how do I link to individual posts in a way that won’t be a hassle for people in other instances?

So we’ve figured out what the rainbow and regular link icons do. But that doesn’t answer OP’s question.
I’ve tried linking with just the
/post/<ID>
, linking with/post<ID>@<instance>
, and no luck so far. This must be possible somehow!it ought to be something simple like
/p/<ID>
Problem is posts have a different ID on each instance they federate to. It’s a bit of a bugger.
It seems dumb to me that the fediverse doesn’t use UUIDs
Seems like its not yet, theres a github issue discussing adding the feature
Curses! Thanks for the share, will keep an eye on that.
