    You don’t need to @ people unless explicitly trying to get their attention in a daily thread. And hashtags don’t work that way on lemmy.

      I think the @ happens by default with some apps when replying to a thread, even if it’s a first-level comment. The thread poster always gets mentioned. I’ve seen several users (often from other federations) start their comments that way. @Nath might have more insight?

      @Taleya Thanks for your sage advice. Should it ever happen that one day i decide to create a Lemmy account & begin using it, i hope that i remember this tip.

      In the meantime, from my #Friendica & #Mastodon accounts, my OP & this reply now both coming from the former, @'s & #'s do work that way. The #Fediverse is far wider than only Lemmy.
