Anyone in, from or interested in Greater Manchester?

I guess this will be more difficult now that the Reddit sub is back online but I've set up a Manchester group at [email protected] - please feel free to come along, post stuff and have fun!

You might notice it's on a Manchester-based instance too (mcr.town) - feel free to join that too. It's a sibling site to our small (but active enough) Mastodon site (mcr.wtf) which is also open to new people

Install this to your bookmarks bar, and if you find yourself on an external community you can just click it to be taken to your local version instead. You'll still get the occasional 404 if your instance hasn't indexed it yet but those are getting rarer every day.

javascript:(function() {const myInst="mcr.town";let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");let currInst=currUrl[2];currUrl[2]=myInst;let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;window.location=newUrl;})()

(@[email protected] I don't know if this would work for you because I know URLs are a bit different on Kbin side but maybe you can edit whatever needs editing to make it work there too?)

Nice, I expect I can tweak it to my needs
