One thing I hate about the fediverse right now is the apparent inability to link to something irrespective of instance.

Despite you giving me a link, I still need to look up the post manually myself if I want to view it on kbin instead of ani.social. I hope that changes some day in the future.

Absolutely, it is a huge pain point. It is an issue I have been following on github for a while as well because I have been working on a future version of the episode discussion bot. Having a way to link to other episode discussion threads in a way that doesn't drag people out of their instance would be amazing.

These kinds of things are going to be really tough for casual users to grasp if the fediverse wants really wide adoption. The best workaround I know of in Lemmy (kbin might be different), is that you can put full urls in the search field and it will pull up that post on your local instance (also works for comments).

Oh wow that actually works on kbin, at least for posts, haven't tested comments. I put your link in kbin's search and it gave me the correct thread on kbin.
