I saw that messages have different identifiers on different servers. What should I write in my text to make the hyperlink to work on all servers?

15 ≠ 49064481

The site https://lemmy.ml/ is unreachable from my computer because of government politics. I want to refer to the copy of message, which is downloaded into my instance. But it have a new ID in my DB.

The point is that it redirects you to the post on your personal interest.

You can also paste that into the search of any lemmy instance to find it, if they mirrored it

    Yes, this works. But I don't understand how. The question is - will it work, if remote instance went down?
