Relative URLs aren't widespread, it seems. (I do realize they might be used more often in comments, but I can't fix those.) | |

| Sep 27, 2019 at 15:57 | comment | added | rene Mod | they can start with all possible routes, /users , /review /help. I wasn't aiming at being complete, only to get a rough idea about the numbers involved. I didn't cover post content either. I don't expect we'll find more then 5,000 cases. | |

@rene Relative links can also begin with /a or /posts.

| Sep 27, 2019 at 5:27 | comment | added | rene Mod | This is a bit related: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/156667/…. You would need to have an option to allow for a larger comment if you want to include the hostname after migration. Or you would need wonky stuff that adds a hostname on comment rendering based on if there is a migration but that needs to only kick in if the comment originated on the target site. Seems far from trivial. | |
