Hey this is pretty cool. But why not lemmyverse.link? (or threadiverse.link for piefed users)
Edit: I checked it out more, this is very cool. Codeberg, incoming mbin support, shorter link... I think i'll use this now ;) Thank you for sharing, asudox!
You missed a great opportunity to use lemshare/lemmyverse here
If you give me a link, I can update the comment
I wasn't entirely serious, but...
If memory serves, you just add lemmyverse.link/ after the https:// bit, so it'd be
https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40704282
It looks like lemsha.re works similarly:
https://lemsha.re/https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/40704282
It's a bit weird that it insists on the link being via https but then includes that in the url...
None of these work in Raccoon (Android client).
Can reproduce and just shot the dev of Raccoon an email if we can do anything to fix it on our side. Love when this hopefully is all done within Lemmy natively and redirect services are not needed anymore.
Same in Summit. I guess there needs to be a standard that everyone follows, because currently I have a client which automatically handles normal other-instance links, and these link helpers actively break it!
These services are mainly relevant for PC/browser users. Apps should be able to resolve the original links to open them natively (at least Boost does that). And with Lemmy 1.0 coming up this will be in the codebase of Lemmy itself.
Updated the comment above!
Maybe because -verse is sort of cringe imo. Also itβs shorter!
Yeah -verse has been beaten to death xd
I think a more neutral, non lemmy centric name would've been better but i don't think mbin/piefed devs mind too much. its a cool project after all :)
What about Lembinp.ie
Wait till i drop fxomtpie, we'll need to fit that into the link!
Sha're
Indeed.
While neat, it isn't very useful without automatic redirects and opengraph support. Both are not optimal to do as a vue app. Doable if nuxt and the nuxt-og-image module is used.
How awesome thank you!
