[Feature request] Use current instance URL when sharing posts (lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz)

I'd like the ability to share a post using my instance's version instead of the original instance, even if it's a setting that's off by default. In the interest of growing my small instance, it would be helpful to be able to share content from other instances through mine, if that makes sense.

Thanks for reading!

Posts have a fediverse link, for example this one is

https://lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz/post/73063

Right, but if someone posts to this community from lemmy.world, for example, I get a link that says "lemmy.world/post/xxxx" instead of the equivalent for my instance, even though it exists. I'd like all links to be routed through my instance when I'm on the "subscribed@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz" page, because they all have to have an equivalent URL from my instance since I'm subscribed.

But you can still view your post at the original link, right?

I don’t see the issue…

The issue is that I want to funnel people through my instance, if possible.

Me too. I get a link to another instance and when I go there, I'm a guest ie not logged in
