Is there a solution to links from different instances? (lemmy.world)

This is a more general federated social media question, but posts often have links to content on instances other than the one I have an account with. For example, this post has links to beehaw.org posts. When I click on them, I am unable to vote on or comment on anything, because I don't have an account on beehaw.org.

Is there a Chrome extension or some other solution that would redirect these posts to my preferred lemmy instance?

Yeah that’s super inconvenient. More so as a new user. I ended up visiting that site, copying the name and searching it in my own instance. Would be nice if that could be fixed in some way.
