Noooo way! I was just wishing for this some days ago. I needed to send two URL patterns to the same screen but the linking config seems to support one path at a time. I guess a regex fixes this.

I think it's the opposite. If you have the same pattern for 2 screens, the regex can chose appropriate screen based on whether it matches the regexes. Your use case is more like aliases - multiple patterns for single screen. I plan to implement it in future.

It's extremely tricky to make this work. For now you can manually navigate after login by getting the URL with `Linking.getInitialURL` and using it with `useLinkTo`

This looks so damn helpful. I have some different paths to sync between app/web routes on different projects and this will make it so much simpler.
