EDIT: on web, it renders like this

    In the ActivityPub JSON for this post, there is no indication that this field contains MarkDown. …. it says it contains HTML

    This seems like a bug. Regardless of what clients may support, the json ought to accurately describe fields

      Another commenter (who’s contributed code to Lemmy) pointed to a link that provides the specification for that field: “A simple, human-readable, plain-text name for the object. HTML markup MUST NOT be included.”

      So in this case, it’s more that the JSON looks a bit ambiguous: ‘mediaType’ is only referring to the format of the text in a post’s body, but - unlike me - you’d also need to be aware of the spec to know that it doesn’t apply to the title.
