Done with Reddit's bullshit, and happy to check this out as it seems to be popular. Any apps that people would recommend for this platform?

    I have no clue what that bot means.

    It means that when you link a community with URL (like https://lemmy.ml/c/snoocalypse), it will not work for people who are not on lemmy.ml, because they won't be logged in on lemmy.ml. If you link like !snoocalypse@lemmy.ml, the instances will open the link correctly (so for example I am on lemmings.world, and the link for me will be transformed into https://lemmings.world/c/snoocalypse@lemmy.ml which allows me to interact with the community).

    Okay, but I don't recall even inserting a link into my post. I'm a total noob here and still trying to figure out the jargon, conventions and design of this platform. I probably just need to do some research, but thanks for responding.
