So I know about /c/community@example.host for communities and /u/user@example.host for users, but how do I link to individual posts in a way that won't be a hassle for people in other instances?

It's possible to get a post on your local instance by searching the URL for the post on instance it was posted from (the link from the rainbowy button in lemmy's UI), it would be nice to have some automatic link rewriting, when a post contains such a link.

Unless it already does that? https://lemmy.world/post/94456
