Let’s say:

  • I am on instance A.
  • I browse on a community that is on instance B
  • a user from instance C post something on that community B.

Now i want to share a link to this post. Which instance should i pick?

  • A my home instance
  • B the community
  • C the post author
  • Die4EverA
    link

    I don’t think there’s a quick way to get link B, but C is literally called the canonical URL. Check the <head> section in the HTML (bottom of the screenshot)

    Remember that posts belong to users, the community only does a retweet/boost of the post.
