It's seems right that we should have a local community to help us all with PieFed

Links for sidebar? (piefed.social)

5 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I want some links to community posts in my community sidebar (e.g. to posting guidelines, resources etc) but which people can interact with even if they're on a different instance, i.e. comment, vote, etc.

At the moment, I link to the same page twice in two different ways:

plain URL - https://piefed.social/post/992414 (but if they're on a different instance, they won't be able to comment etc)
Lemmyverse.link - https://lemmyverse.link/piefed.social/post/992414 (which is fine, I think... as long as lemmyverse.link exists)

How should I do it?

(This isn't necessarily a PieFed issue, more an entire Fediverse issue. I'm still not 100% clear how to link to Fediverse content in a way that a Fediverse member can actually use.)

It's a pain point that comes up regularly.

Maybe you can use the Wiki feature instead? https://piefed.social/community/fediverse/wiki/piefed-overview

Thanks for the link.

Re the wiki feature, can users comment on wiki pages?

E.g. the post currently linked is one that hopefully will get comments from users suggesting further resources.

Hum, I'm not sure
