Yeah... I understand all stuff after "However". It's that first part about linking to the proper instance of a particular post that is throwing me off.
But, now I see what you are saying about .world vs .ml. The link goes to post on asklemmy@lemmy.ml hosted on the .world instance. I hadnt even realized we could jam 3 separate instances into one single post lol.
(and yeah, the replacement link works. Thanks. Im waiting 2days now for my "subscription pending" to that community)
So far all my .ml subs have been pending, none have gone thru. But they are all showing in my Subscribed feed. Im guessing it's just growing pains this week. Or maybe even .ml is watching to see what new users will do this week? I imagine there's gonna be a whole bunch of reddit refugees that'll start an account and then forget about it in a few days.
