Hrm, so… There is a chat bot installed in Line that monitors all incoming messages and inserts itself when it it’s triggered by something said in a private conversation?
As much as I want disinformation fought I’m extremely wary of this approach.
It looks like it’s just a bot you have to invite into your chat: checkcheck.me/en/
This isn’t like Discord’s Clyde that sometimes just pops up to put the app’s internal messages into a conversation style chat, this is a chatbot by an independent company.
I don’t think I’d want this bot to listen in on DMs, but this doesn’t seem all that harmful in most group chats I participate in.
You should use the original link as the post link, then lemmy will automatically reference the cross-posts (also the cross-post link will be instance agnostic so it won’t pull people out of their local instance).
Hm, could you explain how is that supposed to work in more detail? I still see the cross post link as taking me to the other instance; furthermore, even the share link and “open in browser” in Liftoff are taking me out of the instance 🤔
I think maybe not all apps show the automated cross-post link - I’m not seeing it right now on Jerboa. But yeah I think basically your instance checks the link against all other links it has (both local communities and federated) then it just adds cross-post links for each one, as well as a link to the new post in the old posts.
