I’ve used this before and it seems to work: @Firepup650  
Raw:

```plaintext
<a class="mention" href="/u/firepup650">Firepup650</a>

```

Do note that opening in a new tab references the `href`, vs clicking on the mention itself has different behavior, EX: @Firepup650  
Raw:

```plaintext
<a class="mention" href="/u/thoka">Firepup650</a>

```
