I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course) - Lemmy.world

I canโ€™t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by โ€œbothโ€ sides of the spectrum. Itโ€™s just something I find interesting.

I mean, this isnโ€™t terribly unimportant. There definitely should be an option to view all links to lemmy vommunities/users through your home instance when linked like this.

Link to custom Emoji

Wow, this rendered as a gif on my client (Connect). Did you just write it as an emoji?

That makes me realize that a โ€œview rawโ€ or โ€œview codeโ€ button would be awesome.

I type : and then the custom emoji name, Lemmy Website Auto completes the markdown for it.

You can also just use ![](link.gif) i.e.

Yeah, I knew about that, but I didnโ€™t know custom emojis were global. Cool feature!

Lemmy spoilers have different syntax compared to reddit:

This is a spoiler hiding some text

Weโ€™re no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I (do I)
A full commitmentโ€™s what Iโ€™m thinking of
You wouldnโ€™t get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how Iโ€™m feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

For some reason, spoiler tags donโ€™t work on my end. I use Connect.

Same on Thunder.
Same on Liftoff

Very few clients support the custom ones, e.g.

^sup^

~sub~

None of these work in liftoff
Working well on Summit!
Works on Jerboa too

    I found a great domain name for sale on Dan.com. Check it out!

    subscript and superscript donโ€™t work for me on Jerboa
    Nor in liftoff on iOS 10.9

    Iโ€™m on the beta version and here are the issues that I notice. The first horizontal line make the text bold instead of making a line. I think that you cannot โ€œcloseโ€ a subscript or a superscript. I find the copy block button a bit too large. I think that you used the wrong spoiler tag.

    Here below my test on the beta version:

    !This is a spoil!<

    ~x = x^2

    Testing some code syntax highlighting (may or may not work depending on UI being used):

    fn blah(a: u32) -> Result { Ok(a*2) } function blah(a) { return a*2; }

    Nested (more backticks on our fence nest lesser backticks inside):

    ``` Example nested ```
    ![image alt text](image link)
    it works in thunder just fine

    lemmy also (unofficially) supports footnotes.[^1] you may want to view this in a browser^[as it currently doesnโ€™t render in any mobile clients]

    ^[1]: with two different syntaxes

    Thatโ€™s interesting. ^[Markdown is very cool]

    just a random bold italic quote

    Something I havenโ€™t seen most apps do (but the webui does) is to convert โ„ข => โ„ข

    no clue if there are similar substitutions out there, would probably need to check the code to confirm

    Shrug emote in backticks: ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

    Shrug emote unescaped: ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

    Shrug emote properly escaped: ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

    This is the real shit right here.
