How to directly open a post from another instance on Lemmy.world? - eviltoast

Might be a stupid question, but I’m ready to receive the fatal beating. Here goes:

If I find myself in a certain post on another instance (ex.: sh.itjust.works) and my user is here, on Lemmy.world, is there a way to directly open that post from Lemmy.world instance?

I tried copy-pasting the post ID, but I soon realized that the same post will have a different ID on another instance.

    This userscript claims to be able to rewrite post links, and I really want to try it, but… Perhaps because I’ve never used GitLab, I can’t find the dist file, the userscript itself. Am I supposed to build it manually? There aren’t any instructions for the installation or the build, for that matter.

        I don’t know how it’s doing it (I might look at the code later), but the script works! In any post I can click a link in the titlebar to jump to home instance.
        Thanks a lot!
