So, I don’t know if this is a dumb question, but how do I change from lemmy.ml to let’s say, beehaw, without switching accounts? I’m on the Jerboa app.

I think this is a big problem that needs to be solved sooner rather than later. I think a lemmy instance needs to parse links in comments/post text to determine if they are links to lemmy content or just something else on the internet. I don’t know how it should do that, but then it could adjust the link to do the right thing based on context, and any apps that use the api could get that data to know how to handle the link.
Edit, as an example… if someone puts a link like https://midwest.social/post/604650 into a comment (like this one!). It should be changed (somehow) to https://lemmy.ml/post/1151098 for people logged into lemmy.ml. lemmy itself needs to do this so everyone’s links behave correctly all the time.
If you enounter a link to another instance in the wild, then that’s a separate problem that also needs thought.
