Now pouring in a Lemmy near you, let me be the first to welcome you to /c/wine, a community for oenophiles, sommeliers, vintners, and more. Come share in our love of the nectar of the gods!

    I recently started learning about wine and was a fan of seeing people post on r/wine. Glad there’s now a community here. Hope there’s enough interest for this place to grow. Look forward to it!

    Looking for an alternative to /r/wine and I’m wondering why doesn’t lemmy.world/c/wine work as a link? Isn’t it more complicated to add the @lemmy.world?

      In theory I’m pretty sure it should be working like that but it seems for whatever reason this community needs the extra @lemmy.world. My guess is its a bug that’s causing it to behave like that. Every community I see can be reached with https://(instance)/c/(community).

      The unfortunate growing pains with Lemmy seems to be everyone trying to understand how the Fediverse works while also having to work with bugs that cause it to not function as intended.

      As I understand, you need to specifically also mention the instance. each instance could have their own wine community. So you need to link to the specific instance community

        Oh boy this is complicated.

        I made /c/vancouver here and lemmy.world/c/vancouver just links to the vancouver community… why isn’t it the same here? Sorry to stray off-topic here!
