Cursed hack to fix Mastodon-Threadiverse communication

If I post something to a remote community, Mastodon people reply directly to me, and it doesn't make it to the remote community. 👎

If I snuck in a mention to the community (but not in text), Mastodon would prefill the community mention and it would propagate correctly. 👍

Tell me this is a bad idea.......

NodeBB now sneaks in a mention to the category/community, and this gets pre-filled in the Mastodon composer.

I tested it against piefed's crust instance, and the response from Mastodon to my post on NodeBB successfully made its way to crust for distribution :tada:
