Some accounts don't have @. https://medium.com/ycombinator

That's a publication though, isn't the idea to showcase your profile? The problem is that the @ symbol is illegal without quotes:

found character that cannot start any token while scanning for the next token at line 30 column 11

[aadibajpai]

Sure, but what if someone own a publication they want to showcase.

[SUPERCILEX]

I disagree, but 🤷‍♂️

[aadibajpai]

@SUPERCILEX I'm not sure either which would be the best approach. It's also possible to remove the @ and mention somewhere. I see that it works for publications when you add the @ symbol as well as without it 😃

[SUPERCILEX]

So are you saying I should revert back to the first approach? I personally prefer that since it'll work for most people.

[aadibajpai]

Yes.

Awesome, done!
