One thing I don’t understand about Lemmy is, how do you do stuff across instances? For example I’m on Lemmy.world, but clicking a link to that sub Lemmy takes me to Lemmy.ml, where I’m obviously not logged on. How am I expected to interact with that community?
Edit: I was able to find and post this comment by manually typing in the address into the URL, which surely isn’t how this is supposed to work
Ideally users shouldn't paste the whole url into a link, like https://lemmy.ml/c/fuck_cars but just /c/fuck_cars@lemmy.ml because the second link shows you the same community, but stays within your own instance so you're still logged in.
However, I think there is also some work being done to make it so tha this correction is done automatically.
It doesn't. OP put in a hard-coded link in their post body. You can see it under the "hamburger menu/more -> view source" button:
[@fuck\_cars](https://lemmy.ml/c/fuck_cars)
I saw this post browsing All on my mander.xyz instance, and I can click and reply to it transparently, without ever visiting lemmy.ml or lemmy.world. I guess if you wanted to hard-link a community inside a comment body, you would skip the schema/domain name part like this?
so my girlfriend lives in a different city, far enough away that my local transit network can't get me there and i have to take amtrak. i really enjoy taking amtrak.
when she comes here, she drives. and it turns out that really stresses her out. so what we've taken to doing is, when we're together, i will take on a chunk of the driving.
because i drive almost never otherwise, it's kinda fun for me. and it gives her a much-needed break. but man, would i ever be happy to not have that even be a problem and just have good urban design with trains and local transit to get around quickly and efficiently, so we wouldn't have to do that in the first place.
