Neat.
I always found new and mobile reddit to produce the worst markdown (like escaping an underscore in a URL, who does that?).
But I could never use it for more than 2 minutes before going back to old.reddit or using i.redd.it (oh shit they killed that, and they killed old.reddit.com/.compact).

Usually stuff like this get’s taken care of quickly. There are no sophisticated filters on open-source lemmy like on the big social networks to automatically censor something. It has to be done by a mod or be reported first.
Also happened to me 30 years ago in IRC (then it might have been considered funny) and on reddit. Sometimes ugly stuff slips through. (not talking about a harmless rickroll)I am pretty sure you were just really unlucky. Let’s hope trolls don’t succeed in destroying a great thing.
EDIT: you can check the modlog to see if the user has been banned. Pretty sure lemmy.ml and beehaw banned the offender.
I’m amazed it runs so well. It’s incredibly speedy for a wss implementation.
I had a bit of trouble signing up, but was approved super quickly and could log in.
(I might bother support later about it, when things settle down)
Even federated topics are blazing fast. Now I am thinking of setting up my own server on my Oracle Cloud Free Tier.Markdown works just like old.reddit. But it feels like it already has RES and ton’s of plugins preinstalled. I am really quite happy.
Depends on what you are looking for. I like Akregator but it’s quite old-school.
