i find it annoying to have to manually change urls to subscribe to a community outside lemmy.world, so i wrote a bookmarklet to quickly switch to the lemmy.world instance
to use, just drag the following code to your bookmarks bar (name it whatever you like), then click it when you want to use it
javascript:(function() {const myInst="lemmy.world";let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");let currInst=currUrl[2];currUrl[2]=myInst;let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;window.location=newUrl;})();
readable version:
javascript:(
function() {
// make sure to change this if using on a different instance
const myInst="lemmy.world";
let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");
let currInst=currUrl[2];
currUrl[2]=myInst;
let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;
window.location=newUrl;
})
()
i’m afraid i don’t. i did fiddle around a bit trying to find a relationship between url’s, but I couldn’t see one
if anyone more familiar with lemmy/activitypub can tell me, I’ll update / add to the bookmarklet
Staying on your home instance is currently an issue on the repo. Implementing it yourself would need using the search, which is complicated because it only works through a websocket connection.
You probably understood me the first time but I’m editing because I made a mistake in how I phrased it.
to another
community→ instance
the number identifier is different on each
community→ instance
for clarity, i’m presuming you’re talking about redirecting from e.g. this [https://lemmy.ml/post/1190997] to this [https://lemmy.world/post/38761]
but yeah, i’m afraid i can’t help [yet?]
