Redirect Mastodon URLs from other instances to your own instance.

Description from store

One thing that’s a bit of a hassle with Mastodon is that you can’t immediately follow people on other instances: you have to copy the username and search for it on the instance that hosts your account. Same story with favoriting and boosting their posts, when viewed on their instance’s URL.

To make this easier, this extension exists. Press the button, and you’ll be taken to the same account or status update you were viewing, but served on the Masto instance your account is on.

Works well for posts and profiles. Very useful, thanks.

Doesn't work at all. Clicking the button accomplishes nothing.

Sometimes goes to the wrong account, but if I go back a page and try again, it gets it right. As Sushubh said, it would be wonderful if it worked on individual posts, too.

Too cumbersome. Demands user to find the extension in the menu and click on it to redirect. It's easier to copy/paste at your own server...

Please update this extension to redirect post links as well. There is a bookmarklet out there that offers this functionality. homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/imurray2/code/mastodon.html. Thanks for this!
