Is there an easy way to share a lemmy thread in a way that’s instance-agnostic (they can view it on their instance even if it’s different from mine) ?

Similarly, any way to quickly switch to viewing a linked post on my instance if it’s linked through another?

It’s not instance agnostic because the thread lives on the instance of the author. But links in this format: https://lemm.ee/post/57428587 can be put in the search field on any instance and will return the proper post.

That’s cool indeed! If it doesn’t get in the way with too many links in a post

And smart clients/UIs like tesseract realise that the link is to a remote lemmy instance, and then give you the option of viewing it remotely or from your own instances perspective
