We're now exploring personal mentions too, which are not technically possibile via the official LinkedIn APIs, but we're looking into workarounds.

Need some quick feedback from all the people who upvoted this feature. Please reply below this comment.
Do you usually find yourself mentioning individuals, companies, or both? Would it be a deal-breaker if we only allowed mentioning companies?
The LinkedIn API has some serious limitations regarding mentioning individuals, and we are evaluating how to proceed.

Francesco Di Lorenzo: oh that's annoying. I think Taplio has the function to be able to tag individuals so I do think it's possible.
But if it's not, one is better than having no option to :)

Francesco Di Lorenzo: Both. People and companies. But it is not a deal-breaker to mention only companies, at least for me. Even though I would obviously prefer to have both options (to call out the attention of the people mentioned).

Starting to see other social tools supporting mentioning individual accounts on LinkedIn. Most have a requirement that the mentioned profile be public and following the page that is mentioning them (if company page post). This would be amazing to see in Typefully!

I might just consider leaving Typefully. Looks like this feature was asked almost 2 years ago and still haven't been implemented despite the strong interest.
Additionally, support keeps asking me "Oh amazing request, just go upvote it so we'll build it!"
Why don't you track the number of people asking for it? Why don't you just upvote it internally?
Why do you get your paying users to do all the work and you don't deliver?!

+1 to this feature request! That is one thing that I wish this had compared to my other social media management platforms.
I have used Loomly and it does support the function, although its engine is not perfect, it does work. My understanding is the API set up makes this difficult. But it is a real quality of life improvement for Social Media managers.
If Typefully added this, I would not need another platform for my own workflow
