PSA: How to link users & communities so it doesn't break for other instances

Hi all!
So, I'm assuming everyone has seen links like https://beehaw.org/c/news and clicked through to find it doesn't work right because it's a different site (I'm assuming a different instance here).
Well, I just stumbled across an interesting feature: if you enter a link in the following format, it works for everyone regardless of instance of origin:
[News]/c/news@beehaw.org)
[My User]/u/barbarian@lemmy.reckless.dev)
You're welcome!
