For the past couple of weeks, some of us moderators of the subreddit r/Silksong, have been working on an exciting project. We’ve created a lemmy instance for fans of indie games. We officially run and support this instance and the Silksong community on it. Please check it out at [email protected]
I invite you, current users of the Fedi-verse, to join us at @indie-ver.se, subscribe and interact with the communities there, as they grow. So we can support both a more free internet, and indie game communities. See you soon!
to the moderators, hope this post does not break advertising rules. feel free to remove it, if it does


Awesome, that’s exciting news!
(A good way to link to communities is like this: [email protected] - that way I can click and subscribe while staying logged in.)
Might be a Boost bug, but the link doesn’t include anything past the hyphen.
Interesting, seems like a bug in the client.
I imagine so. I don’t use Boost, but I posted about the behavior to the Boost community, so hopefully they’ll get it straightened out.
It’s not a bug, it’s an unimplemented feature. The
!community@instancesyntax is not part of any Markdown flavour, so every client has to implement it independently, and it’s possible that it collides with some other kind of token (e.g. with the@usertag).I didn’t know that this was de facto a client side feature (Lemmy WebUI, Piefed WebUI and my mobile client, Voyager, all support it).
That said, I strongly prefer Piefed style link re-direction; albeit it’s a client side feature just like the relative markdown syntax.
Must be an app bug, but a very unfortunate one as multiple apps seem to be affected. Link works fine for me in Summit, though.
Works fine in Voyager as well
Similarly, Jerboa tries to make @indie-ver.se in the post body into a link to a user profile and also stops at the hyphen.
Thank you! I didn’t know frontends supported this.
