Hello, Lets say that I found a post on lemmy.eus, for example: https://lemmy.eus/post/168138 I want to comment on it, but I don't want to create an account on lemmy.eus as I already have one on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world. How can I find easily the post on lemmy.world so I can comment from there? I tried to use change eus to world in the url but this does not work.

For that post specifically - You copy the post URL and search for it on your instance (using the magnifying glass icon).

Another way would be to search for that community (in your example, [email protected]) the same way and that will allow you to enter that community from your own instance and reply to threads there.

Searching for the url in lemmy.world, I do not find the original post. I only find this actual post where the link is in the post text.

Moreover, I do not have any issue finding the community from the lemmy.world and subscribe to it but how can I find this specific post from there? If the post is not new or hot, it may be burried under all the more recent posts.

Odd. It worked the first time I tried it. It showed your post first and then the original post showed up a few seconds later.

Ok, I managed to find it by doing the following. From the lemmy.eus post, click on the fediverse icon, which link to the same post on Reddthat : https://reddthat.com/post/1976 and from there, if I search for this url in lemmy.world, I find it in search result. But it is kind of confusing, why does the fediverse icon link to a reddthat post even though the post has been originaly posted on lemmy.ml?
