    They’re replying to your lemmy post from a Mastodon instance. It just looks like they’re tagging you. Just think of it as a Twitter reply

      I had no idea mastodon was even plugged into Lemmy. Thanks for the clarification <3

        All the fediverse stuff is pretty well plugged into each other, how well they interact is another matter though. I’m wishing for the day when federated ID happens so the same ID can be used on multiple platforms.

      Apart from posts from lemmy instances not appearing as hashtags on mastodon (afaik), despite posts on mastodon appearing in the hastaged communities, not removing the #s and @s is also something I don’t like about the current lemmy/mastodon implementations

        The @s and #s are because Mastodon clients usually add them automatically and the person did not remove it, but they are not part of the integration implementation.

        Like this comment is from Mastodon.
