Is there a way to make instance-agnostic links? (lemmy.one)

Is there a way to make a link to a community of a foreign instance that opens on the instance of the user that clicks on it?

For example, I would like to make a link to !some_community@foo.com that, when a user of bar.com clicks on it, opens https://bar.com/c/some_community@foo.com instead of https://foo.com/c/some_community.

If it's not possible, don't you think it would be convenient?

Once your Lemmy web frontend upgrades to version 0.18, the following should all auto-link with no extra syntax:

These should then all link to the instance you're currently on.

Note: because this is implemented in the frontend and does not change the underlying data, other Fediverse clients will not show these the same unless they also implement this themselves.
