Switching to local instance easily? (lemmy.one)

Is there any easy way to switch to your home instance directly from a post to allow you to comment? I currently use "instance assistant for lemmy" but that only allows me to view the community from my own instance.

Sometimes I like browsing other instances and only their communities and the only way I can figure out how is to visit that instances link directly, however when I want to comment my current workflow is to copy paste the post url into my instances search and view it that way. Is there any addon that does what instance assistant does but also works for posts?

I use the liftoff app, which automatically asks if I want to switch instance when I try to upvote something elsewhere. If it's not on my home instance, I go back and subscribe, problem fixed.
