YSK: you should use this lemmy link switcher script (via violentMonkey)
greasyfork.org
This script transforms links from other instances to your home instance. So useful :)
Edit: since it works from any site, I highly recommend you to add it to your Android browser so it will work with webapp clients here's how:
You can use violentMonkey on ff browser too, but you need to unlock Dev options, then do this

It makes it so that if you visit another instance using their URL, it will redirect you to your home version’s federated link.
E.g. if your home server is Lemmy.world, let’s say you find a link to Lemmy on another website but it’s a link to Lemmy.ml. If you click the link, you won’t be signed in.
So like:
https://lemmy.ml/c/memes would redirect to https://lemmy.world/c/memes@lemmy.ml
This way you can seamlessly use Lemmy.
Though I’m not familiar with this particular script. Scripts should be verified for security before installation.
Not only that, it transform posts link as well, which is awesome!
That's great.. thank you... I've got it running but it's not recognising my home instance right now.
