as far as I know, there isn't any universal method of linking to specific posts yet. One of the problems with it are that posts seem to have different IDs between instances. Why that is, I don't know, but it will require some work by the developers to make sure the right ID is linked to when they implement such a universal method to link to posts. Same goes for links to specific replies in a post

I guess because initially when new instance is created it doesn't know about others. It has no way to tell what ID is used and which isn't.
