How can I open federated links in my home instance? (aggregatet.org)

I’m trying to find content on other instances (primarily communities but sometimes posts). Sometimes I have the @-handle, sometimes I have a URL. I want to open them in my instance in Mlem.

So far I’ve tried the standard search-for-the-URL trick which works for links on the web, but not at all in Mlem.

How do I get Mlem to open a link to a community or post in my active instance? Or, even better, in an arbitrary instance I have an account for?

Hey! At the moment this isn't (easily) possible. We'll add a way to do this in the next update 👍

FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
