The point of magic links is to link to a site quickly in comments.
[softwareengineering.se]
is quite a mouthful. It looks like [se.se]
is not a valid link to our site and it's questionable if it ever will be as a two letter abbreviation might cause naming conflicts in the future and/or might be reserved for bigger sites like [so]
and [su]
.
As a compromise, [programmers.se]
still works for backwards compatibility (I guess) and is not quite as long as [softwareengineering.se]
.
Will this backwards compatibility ever cease to exist?
Is it safe to keep using [programmers.se]
?
