Iβm honestly not sure if this one is on Lemmy or on me, but I think itβs confusing for sure!
Yea tbh I took a look at your profile and saw all the communities you moderate and noticed ones with "@lemmy.world" are unreachable with things like "lemmy.world/c/vinyl" but others like "lemmy.world/c/languages" work just fine. Did you name them all in the same way or did you add "@lemmy.world" to some but not others. I think it may be the latter which is where the problem occurs.
I didn't explicitly add the @lemmy.world when I created them. It might have something to do with my main account being on another instance, @lemmy.pt? Not sure. But at any rate it doesn't seem to affect much once people are subscribed. It looks the same as any other @lemmy.world community from another instance, but I see now it looks a bit weird from inside lemmy.world. I.. don't know how to fix it now, I can't edit the community name and if I try to create just /c/wine for example, it fails silently. So hopefully as it is now won't be a problem as we already have subscribers. Still learning as I go here, too.
Interesting. In that case, I think the most likely explanation is that when someone from a different instance than the one that hosts the community makes the community it adds the extra @(instance) to the end. Whether thats a bug or a feature only the devs know i guess lol.
