the problem with links is that we're all on different websites, and lemmy vs kbin use different url standards. on lemmy it's /c/ and kbin it's /m/. and ofc different host names.
My impression -- and I have not gone digging through the tech docs yet -- is that the idea is that !magazinename@instancename is supposed to be the syntax for reference, but it isn't correctly auto-hyperlinked, at least on kbin.
Kbin (and Mastodon, calckey et. al.) don't know what to do with a bang url. It's a lemmy thing. @newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com should work, but doesn't because of a kbin bug. It works on those other platforms though.
@tal @damipereira @Beardedsausag3 @Otome-chan Try putting an @ sign before what you just typed. For example, @audiofiction
testing: @!gaming !@gaming @!gaming@kbin.social
@Otome-chan @damipereira @Beardedsausag3 @tal I'm not sure how it automatically puts the, !, in there, but what about removing the, !, and just having @gaming unless Lemmy requires the !?
I wanted to try with the !. yes, doing it without does hyperlink it, however here on kbin it can sometimes lead to a /u/ page and sometimes to an /m/ page and it seems unpredictable which one it does.
