Each post refers to the poster's home domain as the canonical URL, regardless of which instance you're viewing it on specifically to avoid duplication SEO concerns
Thanks, I didn’t know that and never bothered to look. But then you still have the (SEO) issue of all the domains vs one in the case of Reddit or Quora or Stack Overflow. But yeah, a few very large Lemmy instances will probably start to rank well once they have enough good content.
Didn't know that's the case, that's neat though it doesn't solve the redirect back to your home instance.
It'll also probably lead to centralization because if you're more likely to find a particular instance through search and decide to join Lemmy you're probably going to do so on that instance.
