Navigation Question
Hey people! I have just started using Lemmy and have have got a basic feel for how it works ok. The one thing that confuses me is the navigation using the exclamation mark, like '[!linux@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/linux)' All the help blogs say go to search in your home instance and type !linux@lemmy.ml', but why would I do that. If I know the name of the community I want why not just go to the address bar of my home instance and add '/c/linux@lemmy.ml'. Isn't that easier, with less steps? Can someone explain the benefit of the '!' addressing. Cheers everyone!
