At the moment, sharing a community link (by going to the community page, tapping on the white dots in the bottom right of the screen, and selecting “share”) produces a link like this:
https://lemmy.world/c/summit?dataType=Post&page=0
But it would be far more useful to produce the universal link instead:
Summit dutifully processes both links equally, but other users using different apps/browsing on their computer may have trouble interacting with links other than the universal one.
The thing about the universal link is that it can be used by people from different instances as well, while the link provided by Summit won’t work for people outside the original instance of the community.
Maybe having it as an option would be useful?
I see. I’ll add this to the roadmap but usually, these sort of features are hard to address because they make a currently simple flow into a much less simple flow. A regular user may not even understand the difference between the two. I’ll think about it more when I get to it.
