Code blocks in quotes appear a little funky.

Spoiler formatting was a big one, Lemmy wants to do it like this, I think:

Some paragraph text.

Other paragraph text.

EDIT: the main issue being Sync not displaying the spoiler title properly

!spoiler spoiler Test Comment

Saw this comment in the wild which does not appear correct in Sync.

In Sync it looks like this:

On Lemmy via browser, it looks like this:

Not sure if code blocks are supported at all (I'll test using this comment); I know inline code strings are, but blocks I'm not sure.

Either way, in the editor, I'm missing buttons for both inserting inline code and a code block.

Speaking of messages, I can't seem to find a way to mark a message/comment reply as unread. I would like that very much.

#!/bin/fish
#Testing a block of code
if true
  printf "yes"
else
  printf "no"
end

Not sure if this is the right place, but in the menu for sharing a community, the format is https://lemmy.world/c/syncforlemmy - any way to have that be !syncforlemmy@lemmy.world instead?

I believe that's the preferred format, although I'm not sure if it's universal across Lemmy and other apps. Both ways work in Sync.

The bullet points in my comment here render correctly in the official Lemmy frontend, but not in Sync: https://lemmy.world/comment/6271596

Any progress being made here? I was really hoping that not being able to view certain communities such as !newbrunswick@lemmy.ca would be considering bad enough of a bug to bring a little development back.

Markdown in the media bias bot doesn't work as visibly intended.

No text image links in post bodies. Usually see them in the format [](link here) don't show up at all.

This is the edit.

While this isn't strictly a markdown issue, it is slightly related. Link domain indicators are handled specially for Reddit, and they probably shouldn't be.

This is a link to a Lemmy post. Sync appends (lemmy.world) after it.

This is a link to a Reddit post. Sync appends (/comments/) after it.

This is a link to an old.reddit post. Sync appends (/comments/) after it.

This is a link to a Lemmy profile. Sync appends (lemmy.world) after it.

This is a link to a Reddit profile. Sync appends (u/ljdawson) after it.

I acknowledge that there would be technical difficulties in trying to make Sync identify ActivityPub users and posts, and the current implementation of showing the domain name is good, in my opinion.

Reddit links should probably display the Reddit domain name, however. These links are external to Sync and would open a new browser page, and it's more informative for the user to know the domain of the link they are opening.

I'm not sure if you're still monitoring this or if I should make new thread.

I just encountered a comment where they included a link with brackets in the url and it didn't parse for me in Sync. I assumed it needed escape characters , which did make it a working link for me in app, but I got curious and checked the website and the original link worked fine there. Maybe the Lemmy web ui will escape characters in links by default?
