@Otome-chan@kbin.social So, there is some kind of mechanism that kbin uses to copy threads from other fedeverse servers such as lemmy.ml. If it is a self-post, that is the post without link, then what I see its copy on /d/kbin.social as a copy of original post from lemmy.ml. If, howerver, the original post on lemmy.ml was a link to some other site, for example to google.com, then I would not see this on /d/kbin.social, but on /d/lemmy.ml and /d/google.com. But in this case, what would I see in the brackets? (lemmy.ml) or (google.com)?

@MxM111 not quite.
this is always the case. however the "linked url" will say the same website you're on if it's a "self post". since self-posts (regardless of which community they're in) link to another kbin page, they get shown in /d/kbin.social
/d/lemmy.ml will show the earlier case as well (since it was in a lemmy.ml community). but yes /d/google.com would also show it I think since the linked url is google.
The brackets show where you go if you click the link. for self posts, you go to the thread here on kbin (if you're using kbin.social). for links, you go to the link.
