How can I mention anyone on sololearn without following them?

Hey guys, Does anyone knows a trick or a hack by which I can mention anyone in the SL in my posts or comments without being required to follow them?

For some users, be aware of the icons they use around their names. If they have an icon in front of their username like me, search using the icon first. Or, if they have text not native to your keyboard, copy their username in another post where they are tagged, or have their name mentioned. Then use the @ sign, paste their copied name, and it should appear. Otherwise if those don't work, following one more person won't hurt.

There is a trick by which we can mention anyone and with any name of our choice 😉👍. 𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 gave you the full hint and now you must be knowing it. You asked the similar one to me, check you discord once

Abdul Mannan Khan please do not use profanity here. This is a family friendly environment and many children are present here. Please follow the guidelines. Thanks and happy coding. https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/1316935/?ref=app

Rajat Porwal We can't mention if we are not following but you can mention in QA to only them who are following the same thread like in this thread I am mentioning you even I don't follow you.

Hi AKR. I tried searching it but I was unable to find any answer. Maybe cuz of keywords through which I searched.

Hi 𝐊𝐢𝐢𝐛𝐨 𝐆𝐡𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 don't remove that "hidden trick". It may help many sololearners. I know that it also can be misused
