Mention

A mention is when you tag another user in a post, comment, or caption by using the @ symbol followed by their username (e.g., @username). It creates a clickable link to their profile and notifies them that they’ve been mentioned.

Mentions are a way to give credit, start conversations, or draw someone’s attention to specific content. They’re commonly used in shoutouts, replies, collaborations, and customer interactions. On social media, mentions help build connections, increase engagement, and make your content more interactive and community-driven.
