@dave @LukeAlmighty @Hyolobrika @yangwenli The reply is actually to yangwenli. The post mentioned a different user than the one being replied-to first. In Soapbox, we re-order mentions so the replied-to user is leftmost, in order to “fix” issues with remote servers putting mentions out of order.
Now that the default Soapbox experience is to move mentions out of the post content, we can probably remove that. I’m not sure what the intention here was, but it sounds like a misbehaving app.
