    I got ran over by a car while on my bike at a roundabout bike & pedestrian crossing: I’m so glad it was a normal sized Opel instead of a tank. Only got a bruise on my butt and even my bike just needed the front wheel realigned. If it was a F-whatever monstrosity I would’ve been hurt much, much worse.

    Personal vehicles in cities should be limited anyways and public transportation/pedestrian & biking paths encouraged. I hate the dust rising from stud tires grinding asphalt.

        You don’t have to mention people when replying to them, they’ll get a notification automatically.

            The thing you’re using might be doing it automatically then. Perhaps you could configure it not to do it?

              It’d probably be easier for you to just ignore the additional @format, especially now that you know why it happens (even though it annoys you). Mastodon to Lemmy communication isn’t seamless, but it’s cool that it can happen at all

              And nobody’s gonna dig through settings to find a (probably non-existent) configuration that removes the blue links, when it’s something they don’t even see. Did you check your own config to see if it could remove the @'s from Mastadon replies?

              Wayyyy easier to ignore your peeve and enjoy the upside of it all, imo

              Or block? Idk, that would be a personal choice and feels counterproductive to me

              Complete side note: I wonder if when a Mastodon user replies to a Lemmy comment that’s nested (like 10+ replies deep), does it @everyone in the comment thread? Is there a limit? I need answers, but am too ambivalent to try

              You sound like a person that does not know how to restrict themselves and in turn restricts other people from annoying them, contemplate inner peace, and then take them more active management role in controlling what affects your mood via the block button
