I’ve found a comment that I like that I want to reference in another community for discussion.
The link (the chain icon) on the comment is lemmy.world/comment/2024416 but this url produces an empty page using the lemmy.world web app. old.lemmy.world/comment/2024416 does seem to work – is this bug in the web app, something weird with my setup, or am I misunderstanding something?
The chain icon should indeed work
if you click lemmy.world/comment/2024416 what do you see? i see nothing, just a blank page
I see a comment about hiking too
I see a comment about hiking which is long and I never bother to read it
For what it’s worth, I’m using Sync and your links did the following for me:
Hope that helps.

There is no really good solution so far and the apps make the mess bigger.
There is an issue on Github about the topic of instance-agnostic links to a comment.
Until then, only instance-specific links exist.

I’m trying an instance-specific link, it isn’t working.

I can reproduce it, but only with that one comment. Seems to be a bug. You can report it at github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues
