      I’m using Voyager iOS, but checked this out from a browser.

      Looks like this method:

      doesn’t work on our (yours & my) instance, nor Midwest Social:

      Interesting that Join-Lemmy.org advocates for the format I previously showed in a code block:

      yet your client supports the “greater than exclamation point” method. It makes me wonder whether your client should support it.

      (Lots of folks like that method though per Lemmy GitHub!)

      Which client you using? I’ll share this comment with them.

        That was the Reddit spoiler tag, so I’m guessing they’re using one of the ex-reddit clients that pivoted to Lemmy during the great migration.

        Either Sync, Boost, Eternity, or… the other one I couldn’t remember the name of.
