In the ‘Wednesday 2nd August’ post on [email protected] there’s a few complaints about how the links don’t open in Sync.

It looks like Sync only supports the ‘!’ method of providing relative links, and not the [Link](/c/community@instance) method. It’s the other way around for at least one of the other mobile apps (Jerboa, I think)

I’ve decided this is a Sync problem, but if that’s an unpopular opinion and it’s not something that the Devs feel the need to fix, then - if you really want to use a Community like trendingcommunities - the source for bot is available (see the sidebar), and it may well be that someone needs to create a alternative community with posts in the alternative format.

    I don’t really know what we’re talking about as a lay person, but I kind of do.

    I’ve gotta say I’m happy as a pig in shit right now with things just the way they are. (happy to have Sync period.)

      syncforlemmy ([syncforlemmy](/c/syncforlemmy@lemmy.world))

      The above is a valid link format for linking to this community. It works on desktop and other Lemmy apps, it doesn’t work on Sync.
