Onion versus Sneed links - Can we find a way to automatically add both?

I got used to TOR, and don't mind the slowness that much down the line, so I barely use sneed.today
Whenever I do, it ends up shitting the bed anyway (not throwing shades at anyone here, I understand these are difficult times).

What I want to get to is that it's becoming annoying to me to see threads in happenings that only link to one or the other version of the site. And I am wondering if there is anything that can be done about it at the source?

I saw some farmers have created plug ins to remedy that, but I don't know enough to trust it. However, I imagine that if they were able to do it that easily, there must be a way for Josh to implement it at the source?

Then again, maybe it's only me that is bothered by it.
 
Alright, I guess it must be on my end then.

Any suggestions to fix that are welcome. Weird that it would do it for posts and yet the member link redirects at lightning fast speed.

ETA:
I clicked on my own link and it worked.
I went back to Happenings clicked from there and it kept loading
I ctrl a, c, v enter and it loaded.

If you have the same issue I do, just copy paste the link again and it will load normally.

I am not sure how to explain this, but whatever, it works.

You referencing Kiwidirect? For what it's worth, it's basically impossible for Josh to do what that extension does as it intercepts the request as it's being made to determine whether to rewrite it or not. The userscript that Slav Power made is something he could incorporate but it's a hackjob and it seems that a better solution involving rewriting links on page render is supposed to be in place but doesn't consistently work.

Checking the community happenings, it seems pretty random whether links are pointing to the correct domain or not. Only common element I can see is it seems to work fine when a link is pasted as-is but fuck up when link text is used.

Tor Test
Sneed Test

Edit: lol and of course they all work when I try to test that assumption. Why the hell is the community happenings thread such a mess then?
Edit edit: sneed.today rewrote both .onion links but on Tor the "Sneed Test" link failed. (:_(

This unfortunately links to the onion domain. But when I quote it it turns into the pl domain (I am on pl).

Seems like relative links have the current domain appended to them by forum software, and then separately there's a chance it will redirect you if you click on a link.
Your explanation is probably correct, I remember it working fine before though but now it is onion for me too.

I edited my post now and it works again, maybe the forum software does this edit not when submitting posts but periodically?

It works for pl but it only links to pl. On onion, it still links to pl. It does not link to onion.
 
The only workaround I've found is to utilize the quote function, which you can do this across threads. Whatever forum logic the quote tool does, it properly internally links to the right post.

The downsides? You maybe don't want to quote the entire OP or whatever. Also, it will put all your quotes into the next post you insert quotes from, ie, you can't track a huge series of quotes and select which ones you want to go into the post. You can only reorder them before inserting.
