I'm Officially a Linux User!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

doesnt my link work?
The link does work, but it isn't the preferred way to link to communities in lemmy/piefed (and I think Mbin too).
Instance agnostic links look like this:
!<comm name>@<instance.tld>
For users:
@<user name>@<instance.tld>
The problem with linking to comms like the way you did is that it won't be opened in the user's instance (unless they use some client that does support resolving it).
oh okay, didnt know, thanks
In my client, it opens as a page in an embedded browser instead of just opening the community
