    I’m use Lemmy Link by fcuks, but it seems to work only for whole sublemmies, not posts. Is there a browser extension which works for posts as well?

      The Lemmy Universal Link Switcher is awesome

        Wow, that script is incredible. Thanks for sharing! You’ve saved me several minutes per day!

        I love how it adds a button to view the original link as well.

      I’ve been using a GreaseMonkey script to do that, I can’t find the exact one I used but there’s a bunch that do posts too, and extensions.

          That looks to be it, I recognize the long long list of instances in the code.

          Is it the best? Don’t know but it works well enough.

            Is it the best?

            In my experience, yes. Definitely the best one.
            All the other ones I tried are much worse.
