normalization of URLs across instances?
(lemmy.world)
I'm brand new here, so I apologize if this is already well-trodden ground.
Is there an existing mechanism that would allow to convert URLs that point to a different instance to become instead federated links from the current instance?
For example, at https://lemmy.world/post/503056, there's a comment with a link that points to https://kbin.social/m/world@lemmy.world/t/87275/Wagner-Group-captures-headquarters-of-the-Southern-Military-District-and
Ideally, that URL would be transformed somewhere between its pasting in the original comment and my loading it in my browser into something more like https://lemmy.world/post/502058
Is that something that exists, in whole or in part?
It's weirdly difficult to remap the "office" key so that pressing it won't open an ad for ms office 365 and pressing office+L won't open linkedin.com, and a few more equally valuable core OS features.
In the end I just had to grab a small bit of C code from GitHub, compile it, move the exe to the startup folder, have Windows Defender yell at me for having obviously installed a particularly nasty brand of trojan, and make Windows Defender put the executive I had just compiled back.
But really, I deserve this for using a Microsoft natural keyboard in the first place.
