I can share the link of a post like https://lemmy.world/post/58535 but if I change the domain to lemmy.ml it links to a different post.

I understand that the post Id is local but, is there a way to generate a global link that contains the information about the server, community and post?

I think it will be useful to make mirror sites, index in Google, addons to redirect to your Lemmy server…

    This is actually quite strange to me - that lemmy doesn’t use permalinks by default. When viewing from a non-source instance, there’s a link button between the comment count and the save button that takes you to the post on the source instance, but that seems inadequate. I guess the post on the origin instance is its own permalink, but I don’t like that it’s not distinct in some way.
