Lol I’m a bit of a dork in general, so it’s all good. If you’re in the mood you can do a post asking the same questions I did, but if not, that’s all good. And the fancy way to notify someone is to type @ and then start typing the person’s name (without a space between the @ and the name), and then a fancy little box will pop up showing the Medium authors that match what you type. I only discovered this recently and I’ve been on Medium for a couple of years now ;)
