A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What's the correct way to link to a community on a different instance? (feddit.de)

Say I want to link to community x on instance y.org. How do I post this so that someone from instance z.org will end up at z.com/c/[email protected], but someone from a.org ends up on a.com/c/[email protected]?

This seems to be a good topic to plug my GitHub issue that would make [email protected] correct clickable links with no extra effort on the users part. I even broke down how to implement that change in the codebase!

A "link community" button in the formatting bar below the comment box would be ideal.
