Shareable links for Lemmy (inspired by matrix.to) (lemsha.re)

Hey 👋,

I got frustrated with the friction for users from direct links to all the different instances they don't have accounts for and built https://lemsha.re/

It's inspired by matrix.to - but built for Lemmy content.

If a user clicks a lemsha.re link the user will be presented with two options:

visit the original link, or
view the same content - but on their preferred instance

Hope you find it useful.

Absolutely open for that.

But not sure I'm following. Couln't you already define the custom URL as https://lemsha.re/%s and leave GET params empty?

I'd always have to set my instance and click at least once to be redirected. It would be more comfortable being redirected automatically.

Got it.
