  I’m trying to write a social media username using @theusername.

  However, writing the @ symbol into a paragraph block followed by any text creates some weird internal wordpress link. Is it possible to disable this?

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey there,

  Using the @ symbol and then a name is used to reference an account on the site itself. Can you clarify what you are looking to do with the text? Do you just want to remove the link, or are you looking to link it to another service? This will help us better assist with this issue.

  Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you.
