What is this called? A banglink?

Anyway, I want to banglink a post.

I know I can banglink a community: [email protected]

But what about for this post?

https://aussie.zone/post/132034

I tried several different ways but none worked:

!aussie.zone/post/132034

Interesting.

I guess this is not supported even on Lemmy's server side. Actually, it kind of makes sense, because to get such a link, your home instance would need to have discovered the target community, which is not always the case.

As a workaround (works, but tedious), you have to open the target community in your home instance, find the post, and then you get the link. I guess that it could be automated somehow later on.
