I think that's from mastodon users, and how mastodon works when replying. I haven't personally used mastodon though, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

    That's correct. @aral@mastodon.ar.al discovered and boosted the post, and it snowballed across the Tootiverse. They're all pinging @Five because that's how Mastodon does post replies.

    That's annoying.

    It's somewhat annoying but also really interesting that the two interop relatively well due to their use of a common protocol (ActivityPub). I mean imagine Twitter users being able to browse and comment on Reddit posts directly on Twitter - that's essentially what's happening.

    It's probably not too difficult to modify Lemmy to hide mentions that are at the start of a comment, which would solve the issue.
