      this proxy does not seem to be working for me
      but then again, the LibRedirect extension automatically sent me to this site, where I was able to read the article just fine:

        Thanks. There has to be a bot for this on one of the instances.

          or, even better, get Lemmy to integrate this functionality and let users opt-in.
          if I recall correctly, I have seen some Lemmy instance that made Youtube videos embed through the usage of farside.link
          actually, each Lemmy instance could double as a Farside instance, so that whole network doesn’t pressure (and rely on) developer’s instance

          having something like this would be very awesome
          well, first thing would be to open a feature request in Lemmy’s issue tracker and start the debate about what is the best way to implement this

            Yes that would be great.
