I'm on lemmy.world and the autosuggestion offers me this code:
[@[email protected]](https://feddit.nl/u/UnanimousStargazer)
Which results in this link: @[email protected]
Even in the pre-0.18 versions of lemmy, you could use
[link text](/u/user@instance)
for an instance agnostic link. Now, you can just type/u/user@instance
and the instance will automatically create a link.eg /u/[email protected] (click view source to see the source does not have any link structure)
Your version will take people out of their instance and to feddit.nl.
Incidentally, if you select the username from the dropdown box that pops up when you type, then you get a direct link like yours, which is kind of crap.
Thanks for the info!
