Title. I’m wondering what’s everyone’s take on this. On the one hand it’d mean seeing multiples of one post if you’re subscribed to equivalent communities between communities. On the other hand, right now I think a big worry is this momentum we have dying out due to lack of content.
We can’t possibly predict which community will be the “big” community across the Fediverse, so maybe cross-posts are the way to go until things grow big enough.
Thoughts?
It already exists but Lemmy converts it into a regular link (I don’t know what kbin does):
Syntax: [email protected] What Lemmy does: [Community](https://instance.tld/c/community) Correct Lemmy link: [Community](/c/[email protected]) Correct kbin link: [Community](/m/[email protected])The first problem is that it should be a relative URL so visitors from any instance are sent to the community on their own instance.
The second one is that the conversion should be done at rendering time instead of in the editor, so the client (Lemmy or kbin) can format the link according to its own route pattern.
