We really need to figure out this linking issue with the fediverse. I don't know who is managing the site but it would be nice to be able to produce relative links. For example if OP linked to https://sub.rehab/?follow=kbin.social&separator=m it should be enough to make the links relative to kbin on the page

Related to this, Lemmy and kbin need to add a way to easily open posts in a different instance.

Far too many times I click on link only to find it's a post on a separate instance, and have to manually search for it on mine.

They need to both start adding referrer parameters to their share links. If hitting share appends /fedirate?follow=kbin.social&separator=m to the link, both lemmy and kbin should be smart enough to replace those values when you view a comment or a post so that it stays on your instance. In the worst case the link still works and the values are just ignored.

I created an issue on their GitHub page
https://github.com/GeorgeSG/sub.rehab/issues/3
Feel free to reply there with a better change proposal
