I think it doesn’t work. I skimmed Lemmy source code (search scrape_text_for_mentions if you’re interested) and found this issue so I’m almost sure the mention in the post body doesn’t work, but haven’t tested, so I used the word may. Sorry for your confusion.

FYI username mention in a post body (not in a comment) may not work.

Oddly, the endpoint on lemm.el and lemmy.ml return comments:

> curl 'https://lemm.ee/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=45734814' | jq '.comments.[] | .comment.content[:50]'
"Yeah, you're right. I didn't read enough of the do"
"Thank you for the tip ... but whatever I try with "
"~~In 0.19.5, they removed the deprecated `post_id`"

> curl 'https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=21766749' | jq '.comments.[] | .comment.content[:50]'
"Yeah, you're right. I didn't read enough of the do"
"Thank you for the tip ... but whatever I try with "
"~~In 0.19.5, they removed the deprecated `post_id`"

I think it would be better to ask the admin of the instance before creating the issue.

Roots of Pacha - well polished, stress free farming sim. Highly recommended if you like Stardew Valley or Story of Seasons.

Vertico expands the minibuffer which I do not like.

You might want to try some Vertico extensions such as vertico-flat that displays completion candidates horizontally.

Thanks for writing the summary for the current image-proxying related issues. I prefer the “proxying images route” for better privacy, but its drawbacks sounds worse.

If Lemmy has a user-customizable setting like “Don’t load external media automatically” (including images, videos, etc.), I’m happy with the “passing through external images” route.

Yes, fenced code block with specifying langauge may work as a workaround.

```text
systemctl --user cat emacs
```

but I said “inline” explicitly.

lemmy-ui: Highlighting some words blindly in inline code is really annoying. For example,

• systemctl --user cat emacs
• pactl load-module module-switch-on-connect

Since it’s a MediaWiki page you can get Markdown source of the page with appending action=raw query to the URL.

I see. Thanks for the explanation. It seems a long standing issue: https://github.com/Maato/volumeicon/issues/49
