Hi all,

I’d hereby like to announce lmmy.to, an instance-aware redirector for Lemmy that allows you to directly link people to Lemmy communities on their own instance.

As an example, try https://lmmy.to/c/lemmy@lemmy.ml.

I’ve created !lmmy_to@derp.foo to discuss it. There’s also a FAQ.

Edit: I've resolved the 500 error people were getting.

Is this really necessary with v18 having this built-in?

[–] irdc@derp.foo 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, because not every link is on Lemmy itself.

Ah, but of course. That's great!
