On reddit, one can simply type u/me or r/reddit - I can see mentions of /u/user or /c/community in descriptions but doesn’t seem to mention a sublemmy like a subreddit.

Also, can’t seem to share a Lemmy Profile with their URL like for mine as example.

for users use @ and start typing the name, for communities use ! and start typing the name.

Also wrong community for lemmy support questions.

On lemmy you can tag someone like this:
@[email protected] or /u/[email protected]
and a community like this:
[email protected] or /c/[email protected]

The /u/[email protected] and /c/[email protected] usage doesn’t seem to be showing any difference from Arctic app.

You need to be a Lemmy Premium subscriber to tag someone.
