Unrelated to the post but is /c/communityname a valid link on some apps/platforms? Or is it just a carryover from the /r/ days.

Just a carryover. You reference communities here with an exclamation point. For instance:

!atheistmemes or !linux@lemmy.ml

No it's not "just" a carryover - it's a valid link actually, if you put it into the link portion of a URL, even without the http part.

Also, your first exclamation link does not work. Probably bc it lacks the ending part so like !atheistmemes@lemmy.world.

This is all explained much better than my words here: Guide | How should I link to a community?

!atheistmemes works for me, I think that might be a client thing, which is why including the @instnance is recommended, since it works for more of not all

Interesting. I did check that it was not merely my instance being different, bc even on Lemmy.world it still didn't work, though both of these from the webpage UI.

The link also does not work on Voyager for Android, which iirc is the most popular app.

So not working for these two approaches means that it's not a safe bet that it will work for most recipients, I believe.

On a related note, if you allow the webpage UI to finish the completion, then it will turn it into a link that will work, like !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world. But I don't know about all the variety of apps and how each one would handle it - Voyager for instance seems to do nothing at all with the exclamation point, at least while you are still composing the message.

This will help: Guide | How should I link to a community?.

I assembled that link specifically for you on lemmy.world, but for anyone else on another instance who wants it, note that links to posts do not really work well since they take you off of your instance to go there, but you can either paste the link to the search bar to "translate" it into one that works on your instance, or in this case it's easier to just go to !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca and it's one of the posts near the top.

Just a carryover, I'm not typing out the fqdn for that circus
