Are Lemmy-style ":::" tags for spoilers in the community sidebar text for the Piedfed WebUI.
In Lemmy, you hide text blocks behind a spolier ":::" tag:
Go to: https://lemmy.world/c/hardware, and you'll get the following via the (default?) Lemmy webUI:
If you go to https://piefed.social/c/hardware@lemmy.world (!hardware@lemmy.world) via the Piefed webUI you get the following view in the same siderbar:
If possible, it would be helpful to have the spoiler tag work in Piefed webUI as well.
We've hard support for those spoiler things for a long time but there was a bug with it because /c/hardware uses the ::: tag in unexpected ways.
It's fixed now. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Thanks for the quick turn-around!
Cheers!
Tbh its still weird to me after coming to Lemmy from reddit that they reinvented the wheel for comment formatting syntax.
From "> ! ! <" to :::
The lemmy-style spoiler syntax is a huge pain tbh, and very limiting in that for something to be a spoiler, it needs to be a separate paragraph. Adding || in-line spoilers || was one of my first contributions to piefed because I found it so annoying (that won't render as an in-line spoiler on lemmy).
The markdown-parsing library used by piefed supported using the same syntax as telegram/discord, with
|| spoiler here ||, so that is what I used for the feature even though I prefer the reddit/stack overflow style spoiler syntax better.
