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: !programmerhumor@lemmy.ml

@CommunityLinkFixer
This is for lemmy users right? The @ version is better for mastodon right?

Since mastodon has no equivalent to lemmy's communities, it can't handle lemmy's !community@instance links.

Communities are represented as a regular user on the mastodon side, if you mention a user (using @) on mastodon, it will be parsed as a markdown link on lemmy: [@lucy_idk](https://mastodon.world/@lucy_idk)
