    !atheistmemes works for me, I think that might be a client thing, which is why including the @instnance is recommended, since it works for more of not all

      Interesting. I did check that it was not merely my instance being different, bc even on Lemmy.world it still didn’t work, though both of these from the webpage UI.

      The link also does not work on Voyager for Android, which iirc is the most popular app.

      So not working for these two approaches means that it’s not a safe bet that it will work for most recipients, I believe.

      On a related note, if you allow the webpage UI to finish the completion, then it will turn it into a link that will work, like !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world. But I don’t know about all the variety of apps and how each one would handle it - Voyager for instance seems to do nothing at all with the exclamation point, at least while you are still composing the message.
