I used the spoiler tag and it works in the browser/website but not in the webapp. Hopefully it can be added in the near future.

Sorry for all the requests, keep up the good work!

    I don’t know why Lemmy decided to implement custom-rolled spoiler markup when there are already standardized spoiler formats. It’s very annoying.

      It’d also be nice if it was blocked out text rather than a spoiler unfold or whatever it’s called

      I haven’t tried in a post, but they don’t work in comments on the app. Example

      spoiler

      this should be hidden

        Can you edit your post to check? That also doesn’t look like normal spoiler markdown

          So I couldn’t add a spoiler to the post title but it did work in the post description text. On web, going to check the app next.

          Edit: spoiler tags are not working in the post description either
