Is there an instance-agnostic way to link specific posts? (lemmy.world)

I know I can link communities in other instances by typing, for example, !AskKbin@kbin.social instead of https://lemmy.world/c/AskKbin@kbin.social , and the link will open in the correct instance for anyone, even people not using lemmy.world.

Is there a way to do the same with posts? For example, this post has a URL of https://lemmy.world/post/1421635, but is there a way to format this so it would link to the correct post for someone on any instance, and not just lemmy.world?

Also: I know this community (and No Stupid Questions) are both mostly questions about Lemmy right now, but is there a more appropriate community for questions that are just about Lemmy?

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Please don't post about US Politics.

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
