Will it just edit the link to point to a server's local copy of a post? Will it use ap:// links, or some other fancy type (for example !comm@instance/post or similar.)?
You can read up on the conversation on the GitHub issue here.
TL;DR: the current system on the (unreleased) 1.0 codebase is that your Lemmy instance will replace all Lemmy URLs in posts/comments with the equivalent URLs on your own instance. In the issue I linked, some concerns are raised about this system and various other options are discussed. It’s possible that the way it works will change before Lemmy 1.0 is released.
