    Please don’t use other posts as the URL for your post, it takes people away from their instance to the instance where it’s hosted. It doesn’t affect you because the link is in your local instance, but it affects everyone else.

    Instead, use the same Mozilla URL that your other post used, then Lemmy should identify it and place an instance agnostic cross-post link to your other post.

      Tbf, it’s smarter to fix that in software than ask people to change their behavior.
