Outgoing links in new posts on Lemm.ee are now being weirdly disabled (see examples) [EDIT: it was my fault]
Outgoing links in new posts on Lemm.ee are now being weirdly disabled (see examples) [EDIT: it was my fault]
EDIT : I WAS SIMPLY AN IDIOT
EDIT: Sorry all-- I was having a pretty good meltdown and health issue that day, not properly understanding the issue and the responses. Apologies for my testy replies, and thanks for treating them with the respect they were due.
Just now I tried adding to our community's [FAQ] (Where can I pick up such comics, both in physical and digital format?).
Yet for some reason: Amazone.es, Lireka, Rakuten, Momox, AbeBooks, FNac and Giver Joseph ...are now producing the message below, also killing the links:
PAGE NOT FOUND
The page you are looking for does not exist.
Click here to return to your homepage
and now:
Error! There was an error on the server. Try refreshing your browser. If that doesn't work, come back at a later time. If the problem persists, you can seek help in the Lemmy support community or Lemmy Matrix room.
If you would like to reach out to one of lemm.ee admins for support, try the following Matrix addresses: @sunaurus:matrix.org The server returned this error: {{error}}. This may be useful for admins and developers to diagnose and fix the error__**
Just to be clear: as you can see in the link code, in NONE of those outgoing links (as usual) did I attempt to draw back to my native instance (lemm.ee).
By comparison, look at how all the other outgoing links worked perfectly fine across the very same post: https://lemm.ee/post/2890991
What the heck is up with all that, mates...?
EDIT: Okay, instead of implying: well, the URL protocol has changed, WHERE THE heck WERE YOU? The protocol did NOT change in that regard, call me crazy?
EDIT2: And if what the genius brigade said was actually true, then why doesn't the fix work...?
You're viewing a single thread.
You need to have the full web address to hide links like that, no skipping the "https://www." at the start.
[Like this](https://www.Amazone.es)Yeap, this is going to sound like an asshole, cynical comment, okay? Here goes--
Dude! Are you honestly suggesting the drastic imperative all the way back to needing modern web-bloofles in order for web2.0 / web3.0 / web4.0 not being able to interpret the actual message properly upon URL's, and CAUSE...? Seriously??
Lol, whose Colby Covington's manual are you quothing from, anyway...?
It's how Lemmy works. If you want to link to an external site, you need the full web address. If you don't include Https://www., it will assume that you are trying to link to a community, even if that community does not exist.
Bullshit, as already demonstrated across the links.
When looking at the post you linked, the links that don't work are in this paragraph:
Hey! In terms of mainly-Euro options, let's go with this set of recommendations for now, once again from our helpful, badass friend u/Titus_Bird, with u/goug: Amazone.es, Lireka, Rakuten, Momox, AbeBooks, FNac and Giver Joseph. (source)
The links that don't work don't have https://www. The one links that works has https://www.
Look at the formatting:

([**source**](https://www.reddit.com/r/bandedessinee/comments/18lfzhj/question_bd_online_shops_recommendation/))No, they're not! Do you know why I say that? Because ALL OF THOSE OTHER LINKS perform contrary to what you just said.
just like I exampled in previous posts, yeah...?
