Mentions as you type, hashtags in one step

Two small things that make everyday use smoother, both suggested by Diego.

Mention people as you type

In a new post, type @ and the first letters of a name: a list of matching people appears, starting with the ones you follow. Pick one with the arrow keys and Enter, or with a click, and their full handle goes into the text, whether they are on Disbigle, Mastodon or a diaspora* pod.

Follow a hashtag from the list

Under "Followed hashtags" there is now a field: write a hashtag, press Enter, and its public posts start showing up in your Home. Before, you had to find a post that used it first.

Thanks, Diego! Keep the ideas coming.
