Full URL links to communities appear to open fine - even if the instance isn't aware of that community (hurray! thank you for this, it's ace!)
However, links with exclamation marks seem to try to open a user.

I'm going to try putting one in here, but I'm posting from kbin so it might go a bit weird or not exhibit the same problem.

Ok, that link worked ๐Ÿ˜•

I've seen it often when the exclamation mark doesn't get highlighted and it tries to open as a user.

Try again

Ah, that worked. "API error: couldn't find object" The exclamation mark didn't get highlighted. It didn't appear to try to open as a user though. Maybe this is a slightly different problem, caused by that link being a Kbin magazine - and it's trying to open it as /c/ instead of /m/ ?
