Support `@[email protected]` markdown
Requirements
- [X] This is a feature request and not a bug report. Otherwise, please create a new bug report instead.
- [X] Please check to see if this request (or a similar one) already exists.
- [X] It's a single feature. Please don't request multiple features in one issue.
Describe the feature you'd like
Lemmy-ui renders [email protected]
as a community link. It does not render @[email protected]
as a user link. Instead, when you start typing a user link in that format, it lets you search Lemmy users and inserts a markdown link like so:
[@[email protected]](https://example.com/u/user)
Is there a reason why it's done this way? Supporting @[email protected]
directly as done with community links seems simpler to me.
Side note: is the markdown documentation found here for Lemmy as a whole or just for Lemmy-ui? It seems to be missing a few features that Lemmy-ui supports (strikethrough, tables, community links and footnote references). This makes it unclear which features I need to be supporting as a client developer. If it is indeed incomplete, I’d be happy to expand on it :)
