So I know about /c/community@example.host for communities and /u/user@example.host for users, but how do I link to individual posts in a way that won’t be a hassle for people in other instances?

I don’t even see that icon on posts (desktop, web), only on comments. So now I’m even more confused! :D

Update to my own confusion:
-
You see the rainbow icon on posts that aren’t from your home instance. This icon takes you to the full original URL of that post on the remote instance.
-
The regular chain link icon on comments does indeed give you a link to a comment via your home instance. But that’s no good if you’re trying to link it agnostically for everyone else.
