Lemmy comments seem to have two URLs. One is of the form https://{{domain}}/post/{{postId}}/comment/{{commentId}} The other is of the form https://{{domain}}/comment/{{commentId}} It seems like the second one is used as the AP id because it’s the only one that resolves to the post when I search from my pleroma acct. Why does Lemmy surface two URLs on the comment? While I think the first form makes more sense, I think the comment should only include the second one since it’s the one that can actually be resolved to the post from other software. If there’s a reason to keep both around, could the first form be fixed so that it also resolves to the post? the byline of a lemmy comment [https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/91d23f3e-c962-4dd2-8332-e65acd5ea69f.png] In the above screenshot, the link icon uses the first URL form and the community icon uses the second URL form. This is another strange pattern. I would expect the community icon to link to the community’s home page.

Is there a better way to crosspost a text post?
