So lets say my home instance is Instance A, but I'm browsing Community 1 in Instance B. Now in that community I see a comment that I want to reply to with a link to a comment I saw in Instance C, community 2, just because I think it's the most relevant to the discussion.
If I use the URL from the 2 chains "link" icon, that will send users to https://instance.a/comment/#######
on my home instance. So that will send anyone from another instance who follows my link, to my instance and log them out of their account....
If I use the URL from the rainbow network "link" icon, it will send the user to https://instance.c/comment/#######
, thus logging them out of their account on their instance (unless instance c happens to be their home).
But what about users coming across the conversation from Instance B? Or Instance D or F, or H? Is there a way to format the URL for that link such that anyone can follow it without moving to another instance, and/or logging out of their home instance?
This feels to me like it would be an important core feature of a platform like this.... otherwise when sharing ideas, usability becomes... challenging.
