Links to communities try to open users
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.

I also remember that this worked at a point, but it doesn't anymore. It's always the format with the ! exclamation point in front. @[email protected] If you are looking for examples, basically all links in https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities don't work. They're in the format

Most links have been working fine for me recently, although I still occasionally see this error. However, it appears that links to kbin magazines don't work at all. I suspect Connect is searching for server/c/community and not retrying with server/m/community when it gets an error back.
Do you have an example of a working link? Because all ! links don't work for me currently. I always get the 'user not found' Page, so it interprets them without the !
The ones in !trendingcommunities
...which I see now are local links with /c/ so not the issue we're discussing here!
