As mentioned in the other thread you started, you should remove beehaw

[–] rob299@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I appologise for the beehaw community, it did act a little weird as I was trying to link to it. Can someone explain why it wouldn't work like others, as i'm working on replacing it with another one. I was assuming all communities were all freely available for anyone to use.

Looks like bestoflemmy migrated too https://lemmy.ca/c/bestofthefediverse

[–] CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !bestofthefediverse@lemmy.ca

[–] rob299@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Most people don't know that. It's a confusing concept, but usually if you know the name of the community just start it with an ! and then add in an @ (almost like an email) then what the instance is. Is a simple way to look at it for new users, or even long term users still getting use to it.
