These are apparently called “Desire Paths”
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path
And there's a whole community for them! Not sure how to link to it though.
Just give the URL, I'll do it for you.
https://sh.itjust.works/c/desire_paths Thanks!
!desire_paths@sh.itjust.works
Literally just put it in that way, for future notice - there's no hidden formatting here.
Same for users — just change the ! to an @.
Example: @pageflight@lemmy.world
At least on the official web app, that doesn't render as a link. You've got to do it as [whatever](u/pageflight@lemmy.world)
whatever
Oh, that's annoying. Works fine on Voyager for me.
