    Well, I agree! Until it’s there, you can do one of these: a) ignore the bot, b) block the bot, c) block all bots, d) contribute to Lemmy UI. Even though it may sound trivial to you, it really isn’t, due to the federated nature of Lemmy. The IDs are specific to each instance, it’s not a simple string replacement.

          Ah sorry, just remembered I put my entire instance behind authentication except for the API endpoints required for federation. The comment I was linking to is in this thread. Just describes how all the info you need to properly transform the links is right there in the database records of the entities you want to transform, so this functionality can easily be added without much work.
