Hi all!
So, I’m assuming everyone has seen links like https://beehaw.org/c/news and clicked through to find it doesn’t work right because it’s a different site (I’m assuming a different instance here).
Well, I just stumbled across an interesting feature: if you enter a link in the following format, it works for everyone regardless of instance of origin:
[News](/c/news@beehaw.org)
[My User](/u/barbarian@lemmy.reckless.dev)
You’re welcome!
Sorry OP, but your links don’t work for me. Reading this on kbin and all your links are 404’ing.
The only problem is that if your instance doesn’t know about that community yet, it’ll just 404, you still have to search for it first because visiting the link doesn’t make your instance fetch the community yet.
This should still be the default behavior when it autofills a community link though, I hope they make this change 👍
