!harrypotter@literature.cafe

As winter calls for magic and castles, I’m trying to revive this community. For Kbin: !harrypotter@literature.cafe

Edit: I can’t get the Kbin link to work, if someone can help me that would be great!

I think this should work for everyone: !harrypotter

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: !harrypotter@literature.cafe

Blaze@fedia.io on 16 Jan 2024 17:56 collapse

Actually now this link seems to work the best, I don't get it but anyway!

Blaze@fedia.io on 16 Jan 2024 17:49 next collapse

Perfect, thank you so much!

How did you create it, if I might ask? I must have messed up something

sab@kbin.social on 16 Jan 2024 18:30 collapse

You should just need to write !harrypotter@literature.cafe in the comment box, and the link is generated automatically. Should work in both Lemmy and kbin at least, not sure about mbin but would make sense that it works there as well. :)

amio@kbin.social on 17 Jan 2024 12:12 collapse

On kbin, that links to lit.cafe the site, instead of viewing the community through kbin.

sab@kbin.social on 17 Jan 2024 12:16 next collapse

Even when you click it without opening in a new tab/window?

Shyfer@ttrpg.network on 17 Jan 2024 18:52 collapse

Doesn’t Kbin work with an @?

@HarryPotter@literature.cafe

Does that work?

Blaze@fedia.io on 16 Jan 2024 17:48 next collapse

Thanks! I would like it to work for any Kbin instance, but I really can't find how to get it :)

sab@kbin.social on 16 Jan 2024 17:52 collapse

Kbin needs to be aware of the community first, so my first link didn't work properly because of that. After interacting with the community once the !community@example.com format works just fine. :)

I subscribed from Kbin.social now, so future posts should be visible from there. :)

Ah, I see, thanks!

Direct kbin link since apparently it can't deal with the !:

https://kbin.social/m/harrypotter@literature.cafe

Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de on 17 Jan 2024 14:03 next collapse

Thanks! Interesting, fedia.io was able to work with the other links, but I guess it’s because it’s mbin rather than kbin

Shyfer@ttrpg.network on 17 Jan 2024 18:53 collapse

I think it also works with an @. Such as

@HarryPotter@literature.cafe

Someone let me know if that doesn’t work.

amio@kbin.social on 17 Jan 2024 19:09 next collapse

That links to literature.cafe directly, too, but nice try. People have been saying kbin is screwy with this.

Shyfer@ttrpg.network on 18 Jan 2024 01:57 collapse

Darn. Oh well.

Fitik@fedia.io on 20 Jan 2024 00:00 collapse

This one works for me on mbin, while others link to literature.cafe
