The link [Discourse Meta - The Official Support Forum for Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/my/bookmarks) doesn’t work to get to bookmarks for the currently logged in user.

Currently displays the message after redirecting to `https://meta.discourse.org/u/DeanMarkTaylor/bookmarks`:

> Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.

The bookmarks page has changed URL and the following URL can be used to link to it:  
[https://meta.discourse.org/my/activity/bookmarks](https://meta.discourse.org/my/activity/bookmarks)

I’m not sure if `/my/bookmarks` was actually used in previous translations but as of the current code base, that isn’t a valid route anymore. During my investigation, I did find a bug with the new user of the month post.

People made these links themselves by replacing the /user/name/ portion with /my/, so that explains why you can’t find it in any strings.
