sounds like a sync issue. federated links don’t direct you away from your instance so you can actually interact with the communities being linked to no matter what activity pub software you’re using.
Lemmy users have a bad habit of using local links which are next to useless unless you’re on the same instance.
! is a lemmy thing and sends you to the original url, @ is a fediverse thing and sends you to the linked community on your own instance so you can actually interact with it.
ITT: people who don’t know how federated links work. I’m not joining your instance or searching your recommendation on my own.
@anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com because the masters tools will never be used to dismantle his own house.
@selfhosted@lemmy.world because fuck 60+ streaming services
@piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com because fuck 60+ streaming services
edit: looks like even ! links aren’t standardised. What an absolute shit show.

For links that work.
Your links don’t work with Sync. Everyone else’s do.

Shouldn’t the ‘@’ at the start of those be ‘!’ instead? I thought ‘@’ was for users and ‘!’ for Communities

Voyager tries to send me to the user with that id, not the community. It seems there are differences.
! links worked on multiple mobile apps (at least Eternity and Thunder) for me, can’t say the same of the @ kind
Ah ok, right on
! Works for all Lemmy apps but @ doesn’t
They also do not work in Voyager and in the browser they are not even links
I’m on Voyager and sh.itjust.works, and they’re still not working for me, lol

first time I’ve ever, and I mean ever, seen ! not link off site.
in fact this thread is a total shit show of apps implementing it differently.
if @ isn’t working for everyone I’ll stop using it because it actually working was the whole point.
testing plz ignore: !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com @anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com @piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
@ doesn’t even link on lemmy, that’s funny. and single return doesn’t format correctly, what is this reddit 2.0?
