@sh.itjust.worksI 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.
This is the normal way federation functions. You would get similar results using the link or post share feature of the web version of Lemmy.
For example, this thread’s link is shared from my web interface as https://sh.itjust.works/post/2774802 because I am logging in from sh.itjust.works.
I can confirm this one. I also can’t see the same pin/unpin comment thread you posted the screenshot of.
Just an FYI to testers, currently, you are not charged for any of the purchases. They are just dummy purchases to test out the infrastructure (you will see this noted on the screen when attempting to purchase Bean Pro). That being said, I'm ready to make that lifetime Pro purchase for real when Bean hits the App Store.
It seems like most of the biggest iOS and App communities are on lemmy.world, a side effect of them getting the brunt of the Great Reddit Exodus. There are a few decently-sized Apple communities on other instances, and the general communities of instances are usually friendly to spreading the word (in fact, I found out about Bean from !Lemmy@lemmy.ml). Plenty of sharing on Mastadon is always a good method too.
It’s my pleasure. I agree that many of us beta testers should be able to answer the majority of the questions that get asked. I’ll also try to get the bug reports organized and funneled to you with all the info you need.
As far as the mod thing, that’s up to you.
