Is there a solution to links from different instances?
This is a more general federated social media question, but posts often have links to content on instances other than the one I have an account with. For example, this post has links to beehaw.org posts. When I click on them, I am unable to vote on or comment on anything, because I don't have an account on beehaw.org.
Is there a Chrome extension or some other solution that would redirect these posts to my preferred lemmy instance?

Links should be created as relative links with the host server at the end like:
[ErgoMechKeyboards](/c/ergomechkeyboards@lemmy.world)
This wil result in a link like this: ErgoMechKeyboards
The latest version of Jerboa crashes for me any time I tap such a link. Really frustrating.
Anyway, either the client or underlying framework really needs to rewrite URLs to be relative to the currently logged-in instance. This is a major issue.
I'm guessing it would work the same way with Kbin, just using /m/ instead of /c/?
