Is there an equivalent to doing /u/user in The Bad Place, to notify and summon someone?
Guess not
But are we sure though @oatmilkmaid @[email protected]
It’s supposed to be @[email protected] afaik, though I’m not sure why [email protected] wouldn’t do it. The only dev I can do developing hemorrhoids.
Yeah, that’s what I typed (with the @). Maybe it gets cropped out on your app or interface?
Could be, jerboa gets weird with formatting
Yeah works fine for me, although it could be an app feature (using connect at the moment)
@[email protected] is correct. It doesn’t seem to work in Jeroba, but it does in a web browser. As you start typing the user’s name a pop-up menu will appear.
Far as I understand, there isn’t a way to do that. Federated usernames work essentially like an email address because of the decentralized nature of the service. If I type
@sparky@lemmy.federate.cc
it won’t send you a notification, but it will link your profile.At least I think that’s how it works. Who wants to jump in and point out all the ways I’m wrong?
I have definitely received a mention notification on Jerboa when someone mentioned me like that.
