New community for BBSes and retrocomputing

Hey all technology people!

Not my community, but I thought I'd advertise someone else's new lemmy community to see if anyone else is interested.

Head over to !bbses@lemmy.dbzer0.com for BBSes and retrocomputing.

Linking to Lemmy communities is always a problem, the links should be automatically converted or the average user would never be able to subscribe from their instance, especially on mobile

To get to the community from your instance, go to https://YOURINSTANCEHOSTNAMEHERE/c/bbses@lemmy.dbzer0.com

/c/bbses@lemmy.dbzer0.com should turn into a clickable link.

Edit. Maybe not... at least not on the android app. Let's try this?

Edit: the latter (relative link using markdown, [this](/c/bbses@lemmy.dbzer0.com)) "works" on the web version but 404's (probably because nobody has tried the community from that server yet, or defederation) but crashes the current version of the app, and the plain text version doesn't work on either :/
