@onehundredninetysix okay, so now it seems to have desynced for some reason, my comments on lemmy are already +40min behind, waiting for it to catch up
When things are syncing, they should be getting all messages and not just the @ ones. This is based on my twin finding a post I made to lemmy and commenting on it from mastodon. As long as I replied to their comment, they saw it and I never used the @.
Although this is the opposite, maybe. Someone from mastodon made the post, instead of commenting on a lemmy post from mastodon.
Also the @ was just something mastodon does and we found twin could remove it on their end and I'd still be alerted I had a reply.
Edit - they won't be alerted of this message though, as it's not a top level comment. They'll get yours because yours is. But mine is a comment to you. They'd still see it if they read the thread though.
From my short experience with mastodon and similars (misskey, akkoma), it doesn't notify a user you've replied to if you don't @ them, which makes no sense to me, since the "Reply" is pointing to said user's post anyway. So, their workaround is to force @ them anyway

Hello there

@sunoc oh hello :3
it really didn't take long for this account to be discovered huh

Interesting, so the replies with the “@“ username are from people from Mastodon!
How does it work for my replies on your side ?
hameru@cyberplace.social · 2 pts · 270d
@sunoc yes, but I think lemmy also shows the @ username for anyone on a different instance from yours, not necessarily mastodon
for me your replies appear as comments under my mastodon post
sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 270d
They mean in the text body at the start. So like @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu not in the username section
Always love seeing the telltale sign of mass accs always fun to see
hameru@cyberplace.social · 3 pts · 270d
@sorrybookbroke oh mb I see it now, yeah mastodon auto-completes the replies with that, I don't think it works if I delete the mention
also disappointed that @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu is not a real account

Do you get notifications from every reply, or only ones that @ you?

hameru@cyberplace.social · 1 pts · 270d
actually let me test this now, will this reply work without the @ ?
ICastFist@programming.dev · 1 pts · 269d
It works, since lemmy is more like reddit/forums
hameru@cyberplace.social · 0 pts · 268d
good to know, idk why mastodon puts it in automatically then

@ICastFist I get every reply!
I think I still need to @ whoever I'm replying to tho, I'm not sure you'll get it otherwise
