[…] I’m hoping that by leaving out the @ sign before the local username, that won’t send him an unwanted notification […]

Personally, I think it's okay to ping him. I would think it'd be neat to see where and what conversations are occurring.

If you want to mention him, I won't try to stop you (not that I could if I wanted to). For me though, I'm pretty sure he's already aware of the existence of !notjustbikes@feddit.nl so he has the resources to follow threadiverse discussions of himself if he wants, and I'd rather leave it in his hands to control that rather than have it thrust upon him.

I think that's fair, and I appreciate your considerateness 😊

Ha, nah it's okay. I think it'd be silly for me to ping him further down in the thread after the fact. I was mostly voicing my unsolicited opinion 😆
