    I wanted to make a joke about seeing the Earth from above as opposed to below like from underground but I started thinking about molemen and it got lame. Then I thought about making it below if you were in the southern hemisphere, then that fell apart and I just wrote this. It was an interesting minute. But I dig orbital photos and stuff so this rocks.

        Yeah, sorry, your link would have been fine for most people 'cos they’ll be accessing Lemmy through an app that auto-magically resolves absolute links into ones relative to their instance. It’s just because I’m not using Lemmy (I’ve seen the MBin guy do the same thing before)

        The link you posted is a website link. Hence the app I use for lemmy (Connect) opens it in an external browser. From there, I can’t subscribe, since I’m only logged in, in the app.

        The link format that andrew posted is a lemmy link. It is instance independant, meaning that you can view it through any lemmy server, or even via other federated platforms. Connect opens this link within the app.
