I checked and it does, this post's canonical is:
<link data-inferno-helmet="true" rel="canonical" href="https://merv.news/post/26663">
Weirdly it uses OP's instance, in this case merv.news. Shouldn't it be the instance where it was posted?
Canonical tags were added in 0.18.2.
I would think it's because users only interact with their own instance. They would need to post it to their instance first before it can be forwarded to the appropriate community's instance.
