I’ve been annoyed by the “copy [email protected] to your instance’s search” aspect of joining new communities. To make this more streamlined I created this extension to add a “Search on [myhomeinstance]” button on community pages. It’s currently submitted for approval in the chrome web store, which could take a few days, but you should be able to install it as an unpacked extension in developer mode today. Please let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions.
Edit 2: This is what you should see on “[email protected]” type mentions. Is not working on kbin.social due to a bug but I will fix that very soon.
