Cannot tell apart user mentions from other comments

When users mention other users, we only get the user name as text with no indication that it's a mention.

Could you add a field with an array of mentioned users? This is relevant since a mention is like a share more than a comment.

Here's a sample run: https://console.apify.com/organization/d8Gn9RLgG8qysza6c/actors/us5srxAYnsrkgUv2v/runs/A0r5woPJMylQRuoVL#output

Several of the comments are simply mentions of other users to prompt them to check the post out.

Hi!

Thanks for feedback and great suggestion, however FB limited this details only to logged FB users. For example your video https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=473680198594921 in incognito browser (without FB login) displaying "Jh Pebyang Barreto hon niceee" as plain text without any references to https://www.facebook.com/febie020187

Same for the rest - no matter if its only user mention or text with mention - without login Facebook provides only plain text. No formatting, no additional details.

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.
