i find it annoying to have to manually change urls to subscribe to a community outside lemmy.world, so i wrote a bookmarklet to quickly switch to the lemmy.world instance

to use, just drag the following code to your bookmarks bar (name it whatever you like), then click it when you want to use it

javascript:(function() {const myInst="lemmy.world";let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");let currInst=currUrl[2];currUrl[2]=myInst;let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;window.location=newUrl;})();

readable version:

javascript:(
	function() {
		// make sure to change this if using on a different instance
		const myInst="lemmy.world";
		let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");
		let currInst=currUrl[2];
		currUrl[2]=myInst;
		let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;
		window.location=newUrl;
	})

    Interesting. ok I’ll dig further into it being Ghostery related then.

    For your sanity, yes, looks relatively the same on me end when I edit bookmark.
