Disclaimer: I’m a noooooob.

I am logged in to lemmy.world.

I have a feed (Beehaw Local) which I open in a new tab about Reddit affecting Google. with the beehaw.org URL (so I’m not logged in or registered) posted by someone at lemmy.world.

If I follow the @ lemmy.world link, I’m still inside Beehaw, same goes for the Technology link.

My confusion is that I can’t see how to open and interact with that post without making a separate Beehaw account.

Why am I so stupid on this platform?

    Why am I so stupid on this platform?

    you’re not stupid, it’s just that the federated aspect of it combined with technical problems (things not being completely in sync) makes everything a bit confusing

    edit: btw, I think the easiest way to link to another community is simply with /c/community@server, so /c/technology@beehaw.org for example. Sadly these aren’t converted into links automatically yet, but if you do that manually like this, it should work on all instances: /c/technology@beehaw.org
