Is there any way to link to posts contextually so that it’s viewed in the context of the readers instance instead of just hyperlinked to the source instance?
Yep. There’s support for this in ActivityPub, but only Sync and one bot actually implements it… the official webui and none of the other apps support link translation yet
Here the Lemmy.World owner talks about all of this: https://lemmy.world/post/2923697

Sync automatically opens it in your instance it seems.

I think there are people making scripts for that but I don’t use it. You have to put the link text in your instance search.
we use !community@instance
but idk if that works for posts, let me try
!post/[email protected]
[email protected]
!p/[email protected]
edit- doesn’t work, it seems
