Oh, neat! Yeah personally I’d remove them in all of my replies if I used mastodon to interact with Lemmy. But luckily it does seem that mastodon mentions don’t actually federate as a mention over here, they come up as more of a hyperlinked @ sign, so I don’t get mentioned if someone’s replying to a reply on my comment or post. I don’t mind that much when it’s just 1 @, it can come across a little “hey look at me!”, but it’s just annoying when there’s a long thread and more of the comment is @'s than actual comment
I can confirm that if a Mastodon user *does* want to play nice with replying, there is a way and it’s not that hard.
I cleared out the automatic @ things from my reply before I started typing these messages and everything seems hunky-dory.
