Hey ๐Ÿ‘‹,

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.

If you give me a link, I can update the comment

I wasn't entirely serious, but...

If memory serves, you just add lemmyverse.link/ after the https:// bit, so it'd be
https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40704282

It looks like lemsha.re works similarly:
https://lemsha.re/https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40704282

It's a bit weird that it insists on the link being via https but then includes that in the url...

None of these work in Raccoon (Android client).

Can reproduce and just shot the dev of Raccoon an email if we can do anything to fix it on our side. Love when this hopefully is all done within Lemmy natively and redirect services are not needed anymore.
