Should we revisit the instance picker to have an easier default choice?
(media.piefed.zip)

I like the way Voyager does it:
DeltaChat also has a very easy onboarding process: you just put your name, and that's it. The app creates the password in the background and allows you to switch servers easily. That really helps with onboarding new joiners.
Piefed.zip could be a nice default choice. If there are others you see, feel free to suggest.
Now on this, I completely agree with you. You can generate instance-neutral links on Piefed by putting an explanation mark in front of text: !piefed_meta@piefed.social - and it will be clickable and send you there within your own instance.
And you can do the same with usernames by using "@": @cile.sb@piefed.social
However, for linking someone a threaded comment specifically like Blaze just did? It's more awkward.
