Typing it out in the @ format doesn’t automatically create the hyperlink when I type it, but yours works just fine. ¯\(ツ)/¯
minus-squaresab@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-21 year agoAlso the /u/ format works when viewed in the Lemmy web interface, but not necessarily inside apps or from other federated services. :) It also probably doesn’t count as a mention, so the user won’t be notified even if they have that enabled in the settings.
