Done with Reddit’s bullshit, and happy to check this out as it seems to be popular. Any apps that people would recommend for this platform?

    It means that when you link a community with URL (like https://lemmy.ml/c/snoocalypse), it will not work for people who are not on lemmy.ml, because they won’t be logged in on lemmy.ml. If you link like !snoocalypse@lemmy.ml, the instances will open the link correctly (so for example I am on lemmings.world, and the link for me will be transformed into https://lemmings.world/c/snoocalypse@lemmy.ml which allows me to interact with the community).

      Okay, but I don’t recall even inserting a link into my post. I’m a total noob here and still trying to figure out the jargon, conventions and design of this platform. I probably just need to do some research, but thanks for responding.

        It wasn’t replying to you, it was replying to a comment that shared a link.
