I’m going to register a protocol handler, so links to anywhere on the fedi will be opened in the user’s home instance.

Has anyone already done this and if so what was the prefix you used? We might as well all use the same thing. I’m thinking web+fedi.
rimu@piefed.social interesting idea… I know Evan has some thoughts about this as part of his ActivityPub HTML discovery project

I am not sure why they did not settle on protocol handlers but I’ve tagged him for comment

The concept sounds excellent, although there is fairly limited mobile support.
Since NodeBB is an installable PWA it would be definitely nice to have it supported there as well.
