That’s the same link, isn’t it? I’m confused - you’re the second person to post something like this.

there's a difference in how reddit.com and old.reddit.com format text which comes up a lot with wikipedia links - they use _ to replace spaces, and that's a formatting character, so it gets cancelled by putting a \ before it, which gets messed up somehow in the transfer and ends up as part of the link, so the link breaks

Your link contains a backslash before the underscore in "Fallstreak_hole". This breaks the link in many Reddit clients (including the official Old Reddit).
