I got a notification when you responded and it was ">" but it renders correctly once I open the post.

edit fucking hell it did it even in quotes, I meant >

had to use a greek question mark so it doesn't render

You can also use & to get &.

Edit: Fuck, I meant &

Edit 2: &

Okay nevermind, either lemmy or sync resolves html entities recursively apparently.

Edit 3: &

finally someone who understands the pain

lemmy doesn't resolve html entities if put in a code block but sync does

Correctly or wrongly? yours renders ampersand gt semocolon as > only in code block and not in my sentence?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

"wrongly" if in a code block for sure

I use Sync for lemmy, it's a mess but it's the app that's the closest to Joey for me. They charge 30$ to remove ads or 135$(lifetime, it's like 3$ monthly) to be able to import/export communities lmao

Lmao. But quotes won't change anything i guess. But monospace should do or you maybe able to escape the characters with backslash \

Lemme try >

Edit : yeah this works for me.

doesn't for me. definitely a client issue. these little quirks are what keeps programmers up at night.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Again i'm having abiguity with works. I mean it shows as ampersand gt semicolon and not a single symbol for me. Are you reffering the same? Is it showing a single > symbol for you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

yup. sync seems to parse it and take any & code and renders it as the actual character. lets lest it.

 " µ ´ ₫ & > <

edit:

i'm even more confused now
