Piefed now generates human-readable post URLs instead of those random ID strings. This issue has been around on Lemmy for ages with no real progress from core devs. At this point, you have to wonder what the Lemmy dev team is focusing on.

Most places that matter (popular chat apps, text apps, social media) use Open Graph protocol to provide a preview of the link that's been sent. I don't see the issue here. Its on the site operator to implement Open Graph and it works fine on Lemmy.
