Someone recently asked if there was a neat way to see where all of the now broken down subreddits moved.
Some moved to Discord, some to Lemmy, and some are somewhere else.
This seems to be a good place to find your communities again: https://sub.rehab/
you can simply mutate the url from
https://other.instance/c/communitytohttps://your.instance/c/[email protected]but yeah, it’s a pain. It’s a good opportunity for a simple browser extension or script that does some URL rewriting.I found that on mobile, Jerboa has some instance url associations for major instances and that means that links can open in that, where you’re logged in to your account on your home instance, and it handles it. but it’s been hit-and-miss for me as to whether it’ll open in the app or continue in mobile browser.
There’s an ongoing discussion about this issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1048
