TL;DR: nonstandard community and user links should work properly now, when people waste their time by doing [[email protected]](https://instance.url/c/community) instead of [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])

rantok so why do people, instead of using the proper syntax for users and communities, ([email protected] and @[email protected]) they take the EXTRA EFFORT to make it a NONSTANDARD MARKDOWN LINK which means linkify-it (which even the official lemmy-ui uses) won't work properly because its meant to make custom syntax like this to work very nicely BUT THEY MAKE IT A MARKDOWN LINK which means I SHOULDNT BE MODIFYING IT but they make it so i have to BECAUSE THEY TYPED EXTRA KEYSTROKES, USED MORE DB DATA, JUST TO RUIN THEIR LINK. JUST USE THE NORMAL LEMMY LINK FORMAT INSTEAD OF MARKDOWN LINK STUFF AAAA ok so get this right people are out here taking the PERFECTLY GOOD syntax for users and communities the one with exclamation point and at sign and whatever and blah but NOPE THAT MAKES TOO MUCH SENSE because im such a GENIUS im gonna wrap in a MARKDOWN LINK. WHY WHY WHY WHY it BREAKS STUFF and make s thing more complICATED i think every lemmy user should be sentenced to 87 years of parsing MARKDOWN WITH REGEX per LINK THEY DO THIS WITH. THIS MESSES EVERYTHING UP stop trying to be sepcial newsflash YOURe NOT JuST stop WITH thiS S
