How do you tag users in a post who are from different instances? (self.pixelfed)

When creating a post, how do you tag users who are on different instances? For example, I'm creating a post on pixelfed.ca and I want to tag someone on pxlfd.ca. The tagging menu seems to only show users in the local instance. In the comments section, I have no problems mentioning users in other instances.

===Update - Apr 29, 2025===

I found a comment from dansup in issue 5885 on the Pixelfed GitHub. The inability to tag users on other instances is by design.
