      I’m new to lemmy. Do you know a way to link to a community that works everywhere? I see only „!oldweb“ as text without a link in your post an don’t know on which instance it runs. Probably oldweb@lemmy.ml? Or what is the correct way to link to a community?

          Ok, I’m able to paste this link on the search box of the instance I’m on and then I can subscribe to this community.

          I’ve seen some communities mentioned in the form of !oldweb@lemmy.ml but it probably depends of the client if it gets parsed as a clickable link?

          I have much to learn. 😁

          In a broad sense its bringing old school web architecture (everyone owns their own self contained corner of the internet with internal and external links) to modern web technology (things look nice)
