How do you tag users in a post who are from different instances?
When creating a post, how do you tag users who are on different instances? For example, I'm creating a post on pixelfed.ca and I want to tag someone on pxlfd.ca. The tagging menu seems to only show users in the local instance. In the comments section, I have no problems mentioning users in other instances.
===Update - Apr 29, 2025===
I found a comment from dansup in issue 5885 on the Pixelfed GitHub. The inability to tag users on other instances is by design.

Pixelfed posts keep getting marked as spam and unlisted automatically
I just created an account on pixelfed.sdf.org, and every single time I upload a picture, the post gets marked as spam. I get the e_autospam.warning::1403355 warning.
I've contacted the pixelfed admins of that instance and they mentioned that on their end my account looks fine. Is another instance marking me as spam? I can't post globally at all...
Settings for embedded Pixelfed posts in website
Instead of Instagram I would like to embed my #Pixelfed profile in my website. This works so far. The goal is to display the latest 6 posts. But I searched a very long time for how to limit the displayed posts in the embedded iframe. Or - if possible - change the size of the images. Are the any setting or is there any documentation to this?
