they linked to post 886994 on startrek.website however the client you're using loaded up post 886994 on lemmy.blahaj.zone

when resolved correctly, OP's post ends up being post 1845218 on lemmy.blahaj.zone.

Thanks for the explanation. I have heard of this phenomenon but never personally encountered it myself.

posts having different IDs per instance did trip me up as well but i found out this is a surprisingly common practice on nearly all fedi software

Yup - I copied the link from the "rainbow point-to-point pentagon", posts should be shared on fedi with that (that's the original instance's post).
