Would be nice if /c/watercolor@lemmy.ml would turn in to a link automatically. This url will work on my local lemmy, and allow me to subscribe.
It would turn into https://feddit.dk/c/watercolor@lemmy.ml for me for instance. That would be nice 🙂
It’s the same issue with the link you just posted. The discussion in that thread just mentions how you can’t interact across instances. The link you posted is to a thread on lemmy.ml, and I’m only logged in to feddit.dk. Would be nice to be able to open the thread, and be able to comment straight away.
Like the two, ambiguous, links to comments in the web ui. One links to my instance for the comment, the other to the original. The iconography could be better, but at least I can interact with one of them :)
Here it looks like the link is added when you make the comment, and the it is added directly to the formatting. I’m guessing you’re using an app or some other client to access Lemmy? On reddit, it just recognises the “/r/” and places the link on the front end.
The syntax here is “!community@instance.domain”. For example !test_community@sopuli.xyz
So !watercolor@lemmy.ml ? (Testing here)
Edit, my system treats it like a mail link and wants to open my email client.
Or, do I need inverter commas?
“!watercolor@lemmy.ml”
Edit 2 : no, same issue
All the UI is doing is automatically making it a markdown link. You can do it yourself just by doing [!test_community@sopuli.xyz](https://sopuli.xyz/c/test_community)

Yes, it’s a known issue. The devs are absolutely slammed with optimization issues, and this will probably get addressed at some point.

Thank you. That is a lot harder than just adding a /c/ at the start for example. Going to be tricky on mobile to link to communities
Yup, but this is early days yet. As issues get filed on the github and more contributors step in to accomplish stuff, things will improve.
