@andrewta@lemmy.world I believe. Not sure if there are notifications…
- Thank you and yup there is a notification
  
  note that you would've gotten this notification anyway because it's a top reply to your thread
- There are
The syntax is [@andrewta@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/andrewta). It's more complicated because fediverse. But like Facebook, my client automatically populates it for me (as soon as I type @andr it popped up as an option)
- The hyperlink isn't necessary. You can just do @na me@instance.tld
  
  It’s just to avoid it doing exactly what yours did which makes lots of clients turn it into a mailto.
@andrewta@lemmy.world does this help?
- Thanks
