Rather than a format like piefed.social/post/long_number, posts how have a url that includes the community name and title in it.

Like this: https://piefed.social/c/animatedmusicvideos@sh.itjust.works/p/1382987/junior-senior-move-your-feet-official-music-video-hd

This improves readability, helps people differentiate between multiple links in a list and is better for SEO.

The old style of url still works too and there may be occasions when you get taken to a url like https://piefed.social/post/1382987 but we'll be working to remove those over time.

Nice, appreciate it!

BTW hashtags look messy and spammy as if shouting for attention. Tags organize content quietly and work better for reach and discovery.
