Here’s the trick:

[some community](/c/some_community@server.tld)

So:

[WowThisLemmyExists](/c/wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca)

Gives us this link: WowThisLemmyExists

Which links to that community... but within the instance you’re currently in! So you can actually subscribe to it!

(Many thanks to the Lemmy Project Chat on Matrix!)

Currently Clicking the third link crashes Jerboa on Android. Not sure if a good work around exists on the app at the moment.

ok but what happens on kbin or apps? shouldn't it be [!fediverse@lemmy.ml](/c/fediverse@lemmy.ml) which if it worked like it did on mastodon should auto link...
