Question, what client are you using to post? Your post title on lemmy reads like this.
"< p >Hello new people joining the <a href=“https://social.wake.st/tags/Mastodon” class=“mention hashta”
I have seen this before but have no idea why its formatted that way

Probably bc Mastodon toots don’t have a post title, so it looks like Lemmy just uses the first x-many characters from the toot body, which includes some markdown links.
So I guess either mastodon would need to add some custom code that detects a Lemmy federated post and prompts its user for a title, Or Lemmy would need to detect that it’s a mastodon toot and add some sort of generic title like “Cross toot from Mastodon”

Does this response also do that? I don’t generally see markup on my comments when I click through to beehaw but maybe it shows up for some users and not others?
Only if I go to reply then jerboa shows the full markdown text for the hyperlinks to our @'s but just browsing it’s just the hyperlink. On beehaw itself it’s just hyperlinks regardless.
@eric5949 So for now it probably seems safe to reply as normal, and simply ensure that there aren’t tags in the post title when posting to a community, is what I’m thinking then.
