GOODBYE RELATIVE LINKS!!!
Why YSK: Sometimes, on Lemmy, links will take you off-instance, and show you content without displaying it through your instance. This prevents you from easily interacting with the content, voting or commenting or even just subscribing.
Going forward, to link communities it is now enough to simply write the name of a community/magazine in the !name@instan.ce format, and lemmy will convert that into a clickable local link for each users instance, so they never get taken off-instance in a manner especially confusing to new users.
Examples:
If you are on an instance now running 0.18.0, you’ll see four clickable links. These are not relative markdown links, I simply wrote the name of the communities in plain-text.
AFAIK, it hasn’t, but the 404 page now has actual info on it that’ll point you to who ask about what went wrong.
