RE: Introducing HiveLink - Allow users to select their frontend of choice when you link to another post.

Actually in light of what you have shown me, I see that the hive.link software well but the way personal.community works breaks certain things.

How personal.community handles URLs is not the same as the URLs are handled elsewhere in the hive ecosystem. If you take this post we have

Between any of these above sites relative links will work perfectly. You can have a relative link like this one which will open the parent of this comment anywhere but at the same site except for https://personal.community. I wonder whether @sn0n uses Apache for his work. I'd have a configuration file to share.

I use GitHub static site hosting.

You could use apache on a VPS to use the URLs like on hive.blog by using lines like this.

        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteRule "(^/(files/|hot/|created/|trending/|payout/|payout_comments/|muted/|ticker(.html)?))|(.*\@.*)" "/build/index.html?query=$0"        [B]
        RewriteCond /var/www/steemfiles/test/www/build/%{REQUEST_URI} -F
        RewriteRule ^(.+)  /build/$1 [R]

The downsides are: Running a VPS is not free.https://www.privex.io.. It looks like the option you are using is free.

What's your favorite editor?

He's hosting it on GitHub pages, so every link must point to index.html as they have no rewrites and that's why he uses the format he does. It has benefits in the fact that it can be hosted on any file server but the drawback that it doesn't conform to the "standard" so much, I still think it is a good tool to have and benefits the decentralisation of the platform

Illuminating.
