I just tried to see a post from the feddit.cl instance using the open in browser option, but the browser loaded a lemmy.world link instrad. Is that working as intended or a weird hiccup?

    This is correct, I’m linking to the ap_id from the API which I believe stands for “ActivityPub ID” (I can’t say for certain because it’s undocumented)

    This is where the post originated from before it was federated.

    Perhaps I should add two links: one that opens on your instance, and one that opens the original post?

    What’s your use-case for wanting it on your insurance?

      I don’t think there is any reason for a dedicated link to a user’s home instance. This is more of an “everyone is still learning about this federation thing” question.
