If your @ name is tagged in the rich embed description, then you should not receive any notification.

Summary

https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1070061911320948736?referrer=csharpner

@csharpener reports that in the link attached to the post here as a rich embed: https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/1070061911320948736

The rich embed data contains a tag of '@csharpener'. It seems when we're posting we must be parsing rich-embed for tags.

Steps to reproduce

** Replace nemofin with your own username **

  1. Make a group called @nemofin, with @nemofin in the description.
  2. Copy the link and go to another group.
  3. Make a post with the rich-embed for your other group.
  4. Post and await notification.

Platform information

Cross-platform web.

What is the current bug behavior?

You get a notification because the rich-embed body contains your tag.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Should you be able to tag yourself at all? You can. I guess even if it is a bug, it could be useful as a reminder for a user. Either way we should not be parsing the rich-embed for tags.
