Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Most people don't know that. It's a confusing concept, but usually if you know the name of the community just start it with an ! and then add in an @ (almost like an email) then what the instance is. Is a simple way to look at it for new users, or even long term users still getting use to it.
