Help me out here. I'm 90% sure that I should be able to get to !ttrpgs@lemmy.blahaj.zone on my instance just by clicking that link. But it takes me to that page in its original community, which is not useful at all. Even the link I just made goes to the page in lemmy.blahaj.zone... I can search for it from my instance, sure, but it would be much easier if I could just click it. Is there any way to do that? Maybe even a browser extension or a third party mobile app?
Unfortunately searching for it is probably the best way.
It is a little annoying but this is a common problem with federated social media services since links to content on different instances redirect to a whole different website.
Some apps like Jerboa have link handling for this built in for some of the larger instances, but It's a tough problem to solve since there could be an unlimited number of Lemmy instances each with their own separate URLs
