I use bold and italic a lot in post titles. Some of the other stuff wouldn't make much sense I don't think, but every little bit helps.
I mean,
codecould work and maybe ^superscript^ or ~subscript~ and that's about it I thinkAre sub and superscript officially supported by markdown now? Or is that a Lemmy-specific extension?
Lemmy-ui uses
markdown-it: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/blob/main/package.json#L65Markdown-it follows the CommonMark spec with extensions: https://spec.commonmark.org/current/ As I see superscript is not part of the spec, but listed in the markdown-it readme as a plugin, so I guess it's coming from there: https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it?tab=readme-ov-file#syntax-extensions
They are also listed in package.json:
