@thegradient It would be really cool to have #LaTeX enabled on #SigmoidSocial like on #Mathstodon

🚀 Don't hesitate to boost if you would also like this feature!

@solalnathan @thegradient The post on mathstodon.xyz does not render on my app. I only see the Latex code. I think it will hurt the user experience if people start using it before it is supported on the client side.

@gorkemozkaya @thegradient Thats a good point.
And its probably never coming is other apps (https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/19806) or in mastodon itself (https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/19806, https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/822)

A simple solution for folks like me who want to use LaTeX is to do it via images (and use the caption to have selectable text).

But then I would probably do it in dark theme, which is not something everybody would like.
I guess no solutions are perfect 😟
