There's a chance that I have forgotten something or missed something.

But these are my finds, so far.

I would guess it's the capacity of masking text through markdown for spoiler purposes:

masking text
Like this?

kbin does that just fine.

Oh my Deity how did you do that?!

I've been cursing enviously for days when I see a spoiler (system) I couldn't use myself!
I didn't get Lemmy's style to work.

test
Does this thing work?

sigh Finally.
Now I just need to find a convenient way to save this piece of code and copy-paste it whenever I need it ๐Ÿค”

.


...except that when I wrote more text into this comment, the code broke ๐Ÿค”

Upon further testing - if I edit a text, the spoiler stops working. When I update the page, the spoiler works again.

Indeed, I missed that case, thanks.

Honestly, I'd just suggest to add a button for it in the editor after the code one? I think it's a common enough thing to use to warrant it. For every other formatting maybe a little link for a pop up or expandable that shows the remaining formatting rules, similar to how it was on old.reddit.

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

I wholeheartedly agree on the editor button!

[-] e0qdk@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Ironically, that doesn't work for me at all. (I have seen other spoiler blocks recently though, so not sure why not.)

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Is it browser-, operating system- or device-related?

I'm on Windows PC, Firefox, at https://kbin.social/

[-] e0qdk@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

I'm poking around at it now. I'm guessing it's probably something to do with JavaScript -- which I block by default via NoScript. (That's kind of odd though since I thought it was generating a /\ HTML block server side, but maybe it's doing it on the client and I just happened to have JS unblocked when I saw it before?)

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

Hmm. Okay.

Yeah I'm no code savvy so let's hope they know more about it ๐Ÿ˜

[-] RealM@kbin.social 3 points 11 months ago

Yo, that is so good to know!
Wish there was a link to some quick stylesheet guide that kbin supports when you write a comment. Haven't seen this feature before.
