Is there a way to make instance-agnostic links? (lemmy.one)

Is there a way to make a link to a community of a foreign instance that opens on the instance of the user that clicks on it?

For example, I would like to make a link to !some_community@foo.com that, when a user of bar.com clicks on it, opens https://bar.com/c/some_community@foo.com instead of https://foo.com/c/some_community.

If it's not possible, don't you think it would be convenient?

    I'm the problem. As feared I fudged it up as I was rushing to type it up on my phone. As @CoderKat mentioned, the problem with typing it out as /m instead of using @, is that you have to manually enter the visible text in [ ] and the hyperlink in ( ). I got the hyperlink correct and beefed it on the visible text.
