Comment on I wrote hacky tampermonkey script to fix Lemmy instance links. Any advice?

  Can you provide an example URL that breaks this solution?

    Sure!

    user:pw@lemdro.id:80 is a valid url to lemdro.id and should match but will not

    maliciouswebsite.to/?q=http://lemdro.id will match but should not

      user:pw@lemdro.id:443 is a valid url to lemdro.id and should match but will not

      Well that one:

      • technically shouldn’t match, because it’s not a community URL
      • is not the form I expect and want to be using for this case
      • may actually work (if it were a real community link, which again, it’s not), because after authentication I think the browser strips the credentials

      maliciouswebsite.to/?q=http://lemdro.id will match but should not

      No, it does not match.

      AFAICT, this solution is working properly, but if you can find a URL that breaks it, please let me know.
