      FWIW, in Memmy, the latter is recognized as a URL and clickable, but takes me to a “page not found” page on my home server. The former is not clickable.

        I’ve updated my comment to specify that it works on the web version. I’m sure each app will have a different implementation of linking to communities.

        I think that may happen when those communities haven’t federated on your instance. You should be able to copy the link and search for it on your instance, it usually takes several seconds for it to appear because it needs to resolve the link to the community.

        Once someone is subscribed to that community in your instance, those links should work as expected. At least, that’s my understanding of it.
