how do I link a lemmy instance or community in a comment?
As title.
So back on the old site you could write /r/NameOfSub. And it would allow other to click it to take them there. How do we do that in Lemmy? Thank you.

I use kbin so I might be wrong, but you do
!community@instance.whatever, so!nostupidquestions@lemmy.world, becomes !nostupidquestionsI'm not sure if it works on Lemmy, but on kbin
@nostupidquestions@lemmy.worldalso works, it becomes @nostupidquestionsHi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
Hmm, maybe that's not entirely working for KBin because your "!" link links me to
https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestionsas opposed to through my home instance.The Link Fixer bot got it right.
Hmm that might be an issue with the way kbin processes it. I know there were some changes to how that worked in the most recent kbin update, @nostupidquestions used to link to
https://kbin.social/m/nostupidquestions@lemmy.worldbut it also does the same for meHi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
