Is it possible to mention users in a comment? (lemm.ee)

I was expecting something like @[email protected], but I don’t think that works. At least for me it's only recognised as an email address. lemm.ee/u/fer0n maybe? Does that notify the user?

Ah I see it now. Maybe an ad blocker got in the way because that’s the first thing I tried. Can you try /u/[email protected]? I‘d like to see if that shows up in my mentions

/u/[email protected]

It rendered as a link for me, because I'm on 0.18.1 already (RC). Mobile apps might not support it yet.
