Err.. huh! Is Reddit now conspiring with Google to screw with off-site Fediverse links? (see examples) (lemm.ee)

Near the end of my little 'Euro comics' rant, you may notice how I tried to slip in an offsite link, in this case from my instance, lemm.ee.

Now it looks like it... got blocked, maybe? See the before & after here.

Mateys-- Am I going crazy, or is this something we're going to need to work around, in future?

EDIT: As stated below, re-editing the message (even with the very same link) cleared up the problem. Still, I could see Reddit trying to block content from the Fediverse, the more the FV grows.

Don't use Google. Don't use Chromium Browsers, fuck everything.

Chromium is fine in and of itself, it's Chrome itself and other commercial variants that come loaded with spyware. But yeah I'll still use my trusty Firefox.
