This is a really helpful post.
Thanks for sharing this.
Awesome topic!
So I will share a tip. At times you might be a designer or simply a mod. Someone decides up the chain to change the domain name!
This breaks the links on the site! I am sure there might be a command line option to rebake posts?
I am not sure the procedure off hand.
However there is a way we can alleviate this issue as these are internal links.
This link for example might be used as follows
https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-new-user-tips-and-tricks/54341?u=heliosurge
[First Post Here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-new-user-tips-and-tricks/54341?u=heliosurge)
Same link with https://domain striped.

Try it First Post Here
Now maybe you don’t want to be racking up badges for links simply remove in my case ?u=hekiosurge
No more credits for the link. You can also use this to credit another user by swapping your name with theres.
Now we have learned with the Share Link Shortner Theme-component we can strip a lot of extras out of it.
Now see how much shorter the link can become with topic name removed.

This of course only works for internal links. but can be quite handy.
