I know that you can search for instances in the search box, but I wrote a 1 file html file that looks at it's own URL after the hash sign "#" and redirects to the subscribable Beehaw page for the external URL that's pasted after the Hash

EG I want to subscribe to https://aussie.zone/c/sydney

type in this:

https://pushka.com/l/#https://aussie.zone/c/sydney

it Redirects to:

https://beehaw.org/c/sydney@aussie.zone

then click subscribe

I dunno how the beehaw server is set up, but with a HTACCESS ignore and a subfolder with the html file inside, users could use beehaw.org/fwd#https://URL-HERE.com to auto-rewrite urls~

is this too much for a non-issue?
