hmm can you not tag a fedi account in a post description?

helenslunch@feddit.nl on 20 Apr 2024 20:05 next collapse

You did 🙂

wakest@lemmy.ml on 20 Apr 2024 20:34 collapse

I did what?

helenslunch@feddit.nl on 20 Apr 2024 20:36 next collapse

Tag a Fedi account in the post description.

oh weird I just looked at it from phtn.app and I see it is indeed a tag. it doesn’t show at clickable from the web view… I guess I need to spend more time understanding how the different front ends actually work

You tagged a Mastodon account and here on Planet Lemmy that Fedi language from the little elephants is still in consideration.

wakest@lemmy.ml on 20 Apr 2024 20:48 collapse

what Fedi language from Mastodon are you referring to?

That part.

wakest@lemmy.ml on 20 Apr 2024 20:54 collapse

still have no idea what you are trying to say…

lemmyreader@lemmy.ml on 20 Apr 2024 21:01 collapse

You did tag indeed, in the sense of just looking at the plain text of your post but it appears that Lemmy has not fully implemented all. Maybe indeed different front-ends having different implementations.

it works fine in Photon, so it seems like its just a lemmy web front end issue. I didn’t realize till I looked in this other client that it worked <img alt="" src="https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/9d003896-f071-483e-b161-a57fbb6eda05.png">

Ignore the replies saying you did tag evan. If you look at the AP object, it's clear he wasn't tagged. If your intention was to notify him, what some random client does to the html later obviously won't do that.

ah thanks for this. So lemmy is doing something wonky then with how they auto complete tags in a description field and then are not actually doing what one would expect with that… Can you tag an account in the description of a post in azorius.net?

tedu on 20 Apr 2024 22:15 collapse

No (not yet), I haven't found a need for that.

MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz on 20 Apr 2024 22:38 collapse

Lemmy doesn’t support mentions in post bodies yet. Only comments.

helenslunch@feddit.nl on 20 Apr 2024 20:05 next collapse

It would be great but it won’t happen. Even if you ask them nicely.

aroom@kbin.social on 20 Apr 2024 20:22 collapse

He is not relevant
