Yes, all category, user and post links still work by redirecting to
the imported content on community.openstreetmap.org
The redirect logic is explained here:
https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/migrating-content-from-old-forums/446/214
The thread also has details how you can check the logic yourself.

The RSS/Atom feeds for the old forum will not be redirected, but will
be pointed at a static feed asking users to update their feed links.

Kind regards,

Grant
