That link is fuckin beautiful, no more new tab and search community!
EDIT: you still need to have subscribed to the community for it to work :l
From what I understood a user from your instance needs to subscribe to a community in order for communities to sync with your instance
@c0mplexx
Remember, if you subscribe, then you are the user on your instance
How did you make that universal link?
[link text](/c/community@instance.com)
That’s awesome! Great community by the way!

Okay I will then. But what’s the difference? And why so many linking methods?
deleted by creator
I like to combine both. Example:
I wrote: [!lemmytips@discuss.tchncs.de](/c/lemmytips@discuss.tchncs.de)
This allows users to hand-copy the visible link to discover the community in their search. Or to click it and view the community from their home instance (while remaining logged in).
Are there any downsides to this, or better approaches?

I like it on its own line, so I can double-click the text to highlight (which would open the link here)
Ah, you’re right! I think that’s a valuable objection.
see my post here
That is exemplary, thank you!
What’s the difference between the first and last line? What use case would prefer the first, what’s the advantage of the second? https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/folkmetal@discuss.tchncs.de vs https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/folkmetal
I found it interesting to see kbin included. Will try to do that in the future.
I suggest to include an instance-independent link: folkmetal as seen from your instance
THAT is AMAZING! Worked like a charm for me, community auto discovered. Why experimental, any downsides or reported misbehaviours?
Now I wish we had a lightweight tool.
Input: A link in any format.
Output: Each possibly useful variation. Can be individually copied, or the whole as a preformatted block.
Ultimately, I wish this was somehow incorporated in the fediverse so we don’t have to make/understand it manually.

Your link throws a 404 from kbin for me.
Discovery (if you cannot find the community when searching for it):
ilovepdf.com if you ever need to edit a pdf, this site has got you covered
