@NoConfigence2192 @Thedogspaw Has there been a head count of users over here? Hi from Hometown BTW @main

[–] NoConfigence2192@rblind.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A hearty hello back to hometown

No real clue about head counts. Am still new enough to the fediverse that I am still working out how to do some things. For example, I can do most of my text formatting using markdown but have yet to figure out how to get mentions like @weirdwriter@tweesecake.social to work.

I can say it has been quieter than I like over the past few days but am hoping that will turn around over time. Will just keep posting, commenting, and learning how things work in the mean time.

Thank you again and remember to take time out to enjoy the day!

@NoConfigence2192 For what it’s worth the mention worked. I don’t know why Lemmy tells users to mention others with an exclamation mark Because that doesn’t register for those of us that are using Mastodon interfaces. What works for us is when you use the at symbol before usernames, so like this. @user@FullInstanceName so like @main
