This is the best way of posting links. I agree. Let's all get used to this. Also DMCA bots can't get it.
Is there a firefox plugin to automatically decode them?
Edit: to answer my own question https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/base64-decoder/
Wow! Thanks. Appreciate it.
But do we still need this?
Not really. From what I understand we wouldn't need to encode a link to a torrent website, see the other post https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/18438
Mainly you'd want to avoid linking anything directly (say a direct link to something possibly copyright/pirated) or at the very least do the base64 encode thing for that.
(of course the above can change if the current policy causes issues with federation with other Lemmy instances)
