Hello.

I’m extremely tired, so it very well could be that this is extremely simple and I’m just not getting it. However, what I would like to know is how to open a post from a community on one instance on another instance.

For example, here’s a recent post from !asklemmy@lemmy.ml. I know that to open that community in the instance lemmy.blahaj.zone, I would merely type into the address bar

lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

However, how would I open that particular post in that community on the latter instance? Is it even possible?

Cheers.

 

P.S.

I did do some searching on both this community as well as the Reddit Lemmy FAQ page but I didn’t find anything. However, I could’ve missed something. If it’s something obvious, I apologize in advance.

Edit: Assuming I understand what people are saying, well, evidently, it seems to be a current limitation of the ActivityPub protocol. Perhaps that will change one day. Hopefully soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I understand. I wasn’t sure if it was something that was already possible and I just didn’t get it (again, because I’m tired as balls), or if it was a problem with my instance, or hell even a limitation of the ActivityPub protocol itself. If I knew it was the instance, I would have posted for sure there instead. Although judging from others’ comments here, it seems the issue really is an ActivityPub limitation.
