I recall someone mentioning a way to do it through an ActivityPub “resolve object” endpoint (or something like that) but I couldn’t find anything on it again. #1101 will solve this, but how are you guys handling this in the meantime?

    As you said, GET /resolove_object (https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/ResolveObject.html) may work:

    $ post_id=9589178
    $ curl 'https://lemm.ee/api/v3/resolve_object?q=https%3A%2F%2Fprogramming.dev%2Fpost%2F${post_id}' | jq .post.post.id
    22873872
    $ curl 'https://lemm.ee/api/v3/post?id=22873872' | jq '.post_view.post | [.id, .name]'
    [
      22873872,
      "How do you get the url or id of the same post on a different instance?"
