Shoutout to !europe@feddit.de for people curious about the reasons behind the votes differences: https://lemmy.zip/post/17100617 (you can copy paste this link in your search bar to get it, I would usually provide a feddit.de link, but the instance front-end is still down)

I never realized you could do this - feels like the frontend should just do the search and find the local post automatically when you click the link?
You're not the only one who tell me this, I'll post this in !fediverse@lemmy.world.
Your suggestion makes sense, but I guess that's an improvement in the backlog
We'd need some special syntax for fedi post links then, like there is for mentioning Lemmy communities. Otherwise there's no way to know, if e.g. https://programming.dev is a Lemmy instance or some other random website.
So quick info, who are these parties and any idea why (and with how much coincidence) this divide exists?
AfD is Alternative fur Deutschland, a far right party. This divide is present ever since the division of Germany into East and West Germany and persists to this day despite the fact that the wall fell in 1989. It is definitely not coincidence that there is a political and demographical divide.
Looks like the soviets did a poor job of raising the east.
