As [email protected] translated:
They responded to you but accidentally put it into a new root comment. They edited it, but I think they didn't ping you correctly, so here's your ping :)
I’m messing up left, right and centre today! Thank you for that 😊
No worries. Did it actually ping you properly? From a brief search on search-lemmy.com, it seems it's up to each individual app/client to do a substring search for mentions of your username. For another user to "mention" you (make a clickable link, but not necessarily notify you since that's not implemented apparently), they have to manually link it:
[@[email protected]](https://instance.tld/u/username)
.No, I forgot the first @. Just a slip up.
