hello,
i do use

@ magazine @ kbin.social (does work),
while @m/magazine | m/magazine doesn't work.

but if a user with this @ exist in the fediverse, it does try to link to the user instead of the magazine?

here an example: @lain

another way would to be simply [link] but isn't there a easier way?

is there a post/site where things like this are clarified? didn't found one yet.

ofc if this is possible somehow.. i don't think what i do is intended for magazines

On Lemmy we have the syntax [email protected] ([[email protected]](/c/[email protected])), does it work on Kbin as well?

@rikudou

yes, that's what i pointed to at the bottom with the Solution, sadly it's broken atm
i only can mention a magazine that's on another kbin based instance, while for me it also turns into a mention, they see it as a link, vice versa.
if i mention a magazine that's on the kbin instance where i am.. well it also turns into a short mention that doesn't link to anything "class="mention mention--unresolvable""

there let me show
!AskKbin <- kbin [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) (would work if i would be on fedia and others)
!Help <- fedia (kbin based) [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) (wouldn't work if i'm on fedia)

EDIT: nice, on lemmy it doesn't show a full link :)

Well, that's confusing for sure. Hopefully it gets fixed, IMO a common link format for all Threadiverse is very much needed.
