What is the intended use case?

[–] ManeraKai 8 points 1 year ago (5 children)
  • Say a friend sent you a lemmy.world link, you want to reply to it but you only have a programming.dev account, so you redirect the link to programming.dev that has your account.
  • Say a friend sent you a lemmy link, but you only have an account in kbin, so you redirect to kbin (kbin is not implemented yet).
  • You want to see a post in your own instance's UI and Theme.
  • You want to use Pleroma's UI not Mastodon's UI and vise versa.

kbin to lemmy is not implemented yet, right? trying to get this over at lemmy.world but nothing is happening. Also I do not understand the user/pass/jwt. If I just want to open say posts on my instance, is it required that I add it?

For user/password/jwt, it's needed to find the post id and the comment id in your instance's database. No instance will offer you free post/comment id search unless you happen to be a user.

Yes kbin is still not supported, I actually tried implementing it today but it doesn't have a proper sesrch API like lemmy (finding a federated post id in my local instance's databse). Kbin is still in beta so.
