    I’m a little mad I know what this is…

    Also how the fuck do you use spoilers on Lemmy? I looked it up and every single thread I found that explained it didn’t work.

      Voyager app says it’s like this

      ::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
      hidden content
      :::
      

      Which makes:

      Tap for spoiler

      hidden content

        I don’t know if it’s my sync app or what but I don’t see any formatting or symbols on my end at all. Can you post a screen shot of what you’re doing?

          Oh that actually worked for me on my sync app. But yes there’s issues with the app displaying spoiler tags correctly.

          Spoilers are like this >! !<

            !test!<

            I do not understand what the fuck I am doing wrong and I am losing my goddamn mind at this point.

            Edit: I literally typed this exact thing out before and it didn’t work. I do not understand why it is working now.

              The old Reddit >!spoiler!< markdown isn’t natively implemented in Lemmy, but a few apps have implemented it manually.

              This is how your comment appears in the official Lemmy web interface:

            Spoilers are like this >! !<

            That only works within the Sync app, not Lemmy as a whole. As plantsmakemehappy posted further up in the thread, the Lemmy markdown for spoilers is as follows:

            ::: spoiler Tap here to reveal the secret.
            Hidden content
            :::
            

            Which is rendered as:

            Tap here to reveal the secret.

            Hidden content

              How is that not what I wrote?

              !this should be a spoiler!<

                It is not. This is how your comment appears on the official Lemmy web interface:

                The first “>” is treated as the markdown for a block quote, and the rest of the text is rendered verbatim.

          You can just view it on the web instead of in the sync app then.
