    Ah darn— on Kbin it shows properly. On Lemmy (or at least my Lemmy client, I’m using wefwef) the post title shows as “¯(ツ)/¯” because the backslash is registered as an escape or formatting character, so you have to do 2 backlashes. It was common on Reddit for that to happen (warning: Reddit profile link), so somebody would give them the other backslash or 2 (in the case of the underscores emphasizing text as well.)

      That’s standard markdown, which old reddit used. I don’t think it should be applied in titles which should be rendered as plain text. On my client, Connect, it renders correctly.

          I just checked in the browser and it does render as plain text, so that would appear to be how it’s intended to look. I think titles should be that way anyway - large plain text is enough to communicate a title.

          Could you finish this statement, if possible? Trans woman are ______

          Now I would recommend taking great care in how you answer. Some consideration of what instance you’re on would probably also help.

            Trans women are wonderful and accepted parts of our society! Trans women sometimes have penises and that makes us twinsies because I have a penis too! Trans women are humans usually except for the aliens pretending to be humans and sometimes posing as Trans women!

            There I finished it for you! Couldn’t help meself

    So, can anyone explain why the “\” symbol disappears when typed out normally? what do you have to do to make it register?

      Markdown formatting, \ is often used as what is called an escape sequence. I don’t knew the rules for lemmy’s markdown, just remember to add 2 \'s

          Oh dear. In my client, Connect, the 2 slash version looks right and the 3 slash version has a doubled arm. I suspect it’s not rendering markdown correctly.

          Lemme try:

          ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

          ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

          Okay idk how to describe this, but those two text strings above are seemingly identical in plain text, but one renders correctly, the other incorrectly in my client. I feel like I’m being gaslit.

            Liftoff here, 2 is the right number… except in some comments where 3 works too unless it doesn’t 🤷

            2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (second italics escaped)

            2 ¯\(ツ)/¯ - unescaped ITALICS

            32 20 c2 af [5c 5c] 5f 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

            3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - OK (first italics escaped)

            33 20 c2 af [5c 5c] [5c 5f] 28 e3 83 84 29 5f 2f c2 af 0a

            3 ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ - doubled

              Ah, so there’s a non-printing character in there. It’s weird that the person making a demo to explain it made that mistake.
