I enter xn--e1aghfa.xn--e1aqbccjfc.xn--p1acf into the field of https://lemmyverse.link/ when it asks my home. But the site doesn't accept that perfectly RFC952 compliant name

I've fixed the Apache configuration to properly route requests with Accept: application/activity+json header to the backend, and updated all internal URLs in the database from the internal hostname to the public domain. Now the endpoint returns some JSON as you requested.

$ curl -H 'Accept: application/activity+json' https://лемми.опенсорс.рус/c/rust_rus

https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]
https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]
https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]

and distinguish them with regular expressions at reverse proxy...

in another software it's possible to use:
p?ap_id@server
c?conf@server
u?user@server
where this local links will be added to URI ending with trailing /

i.e. https://engine.tld/application/objtype/NNNNNID/
will be completed with
https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]
https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]
https://localserver.tld/applicationname/objtype/NNNNNID/[email protected]

This way the local links will allow to setup redirects to any type of objects.
(and without the special syntax and special parsing)

I expected some special syntax like post:id!community@domain

Or ap_id?post/[email protected]

Here ap_id is the name of part of URI, which maps to
https://lemmy.ml/post/ap_id
and performs all the magic, which lemmyverse.link does

Or https://lemmy.ml/post/[email protected]
if developers will integrate it into lemmy itself

?=post/[email protected] - any ap_id

[email protected] - any community
[email protected] - any user
but the last two options are not necessary

I created this topic on my own instance. It knows original ID, but doesn't know ID-s in all other servers in federation.

I want to write a link in such a way, that lemmy substitute it with the reference to the local copy of message on lemmy.ml server.

But now lemmy just shows an original link to my server.

В статье полностью отсутствуют факты. Если бывает "wishfull thinking", то это оно.

I don't see my server
xn--e1aghfa.xn--e1aqbccjfc.xn--p1acf
in any of 4 lists of
https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=lemmy.ml

The page
https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=xn--e1aghfa.xn--e1aqbccjfc.xn--p1acf
shows that I am alone.

https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/bdid38k9p0t1cf/federation-health-single-instance-overview?orgId=1&var-instance=xn--e1aghfa.xn--e1aqbccjfc.xn--p1acf&var-remote_instance=lemmy.ml

my instance in not in the list of choices. I think that's because it's new and very small.
