On reddit if I wanted to refer to a subreddit I’d type /r/oneOrangeBraincell/ and that would get turned into a link. What’s the lemmy equivalent?

      That is not true. It will fail with a cryptic error message on all instances that have never searched for [email protected], and it will fail for Mastodon users. Those are just the ones we’ve discovered so far.

        On Voyager, I need to tap it, get the cryptic error message, then refresh, and it works.

        Annoying, but for free alpha software, I’m not going to complain too much.

        Just refresh or go back and click the link again and it should work. It’s only when it’s the first time accessing. At least for me.

      Weirdly enough, on Kbin, if I click that link, it loads me that instance’s feed within Kbin. But if I middle-click that same link to open it in a new tab, it opens on the original instance’s page, instead.

      As if we didn’t have enough confusing little oddities on Kbin as it was, lol
