     ♻ Eleanor Grant @eleanor70001: @BobJonkman We could all use a lesson on when to "at" and when to hashtag. Enlighten us?

     @eleanor70001 "At" is used when I'm addressing a message to you, as at the start of this message

     @eleanor70001 You can use a "Hashtag" to identify related messages, as in #WRAwesome

     @eleanor70001 Hashtags are also used for humourous effect: #YouKeepUsingThatWordIDoNotThinkItMeansWhatYouThinkItMeans

     @eleanor70001 And using the !GNUsocial software in the !Fediverse we also have "Bangtags" with an exclamation mark that sends the message to everyone who has subscribed tothat group. But Bangtags are translated to Hashtags when they cross the Twitterbridge

     @eleanor70001 Most software turns a #Hashtag into a link, just click or tap or select and follow it

     ♻ Eleanor Grant @eleanor70001: @BobJonkman But if I "at" a reference within a msg, will replies to my msg also go to them?
