A plugin that just checks to see if Lemmy has any posts pointing to the current URL would be pretty nice. So I can go and get secondary opinions if I want.

Not sure how much stress that would put on servers though. I guess probably not that much if searches can just be exact matches on URLs.

    wouldn't be much stress really.

    I'm currently building something with fediverse integration so this is a great idea and something i'll look into. Basically you would be logged into an instance (lemmy.world) and if you're navigating a to a site or even an RSS feed you could see if there's any relevant links to said article/story/whatever back to lemmy.

    right now I have a feed built that allows you to log into all your instances (mastodon, lemmy, peertube, etc) and displays all the content you're subscribed to in a single feed. So adding in what you've suggested would be a great feature.
