From what I've seen using the exclamation mark gives the best experience as the person clicking the link stays within their same instance, rather than going to the instance the community is hosted on. Also it looks like how you linked the community made the system think it's an email address so it doesn't work that way.
example: !support@lemmy.world
it fails ungracefully when the linked community isn't federated with the one the visitor is following the URL from
