Shout out to !childfree@lemmy.world

Edit: k, idk why you downvoted me, was trying to show you another sub with an audience directly for this question that you may want to also ask, but k go ahead and downvote me OP.

Didn’t downvote you but it’s probably bc Reddit’s original childfree subreddit is a special kind of toxic hellhole; even for Reddit… which is saying something.

Most of Reddit was a toxic hellhole. It's why I'm not on Reddit anymore.

Your link doesn't link to the community on my instance, it links to the original instance, so that's a bit annoying. Maybe that's why?

I believe the way that link style works is that it does that only if your instance does not have it locally. Here on the fediverse we need one person to subscribe before it will show up on your local instance correctly

It doesn't appear that that's the case, because people on my instance have subscribed to the comm in question and the link still didn't work. When I formatted the link correctly, it worked. Unless there's an interoperability bug between Lemmy and Mbin, which is certainly possible.

Ah I'd guess that, I'm pretty sure Lemmy devs made that !community@instance.tld syntax

It seems like in almost every thread, there are at least one or two cranky individuals that just downvote for the hell of it.
