It’s confusing for new users, and this instance in particular has 7k users but no interactions. It’s a bot army, with the top user being called @admin.
Personally, I would think either default to the same instance as the person who’s comment it is, or just don’t link it at all since it’s an incomplete address. Like failing to include the “.social” part of the “https://kbin” URL, it’s just a broken thing.
Not actually a bad shout. When a local user submits we can fully qualify the handle if it’s short. Remote posts without a fully qualified won’t be able to be linked.
